check out your “my account” page. there are options to cross-post your Qs to facebook, as well, it seems, answers you give.

wondering why there hasn’t been a blog post pertaining to this…

@lefteh I went to the app but it’s a blank screen.

Humm…. I don’t know if I want all my facebook friends knowing what I’m doing here on fluther!

I’m just glad that it isn’t checked by default. I haven’t had a Facebook account in months. I hate those other social networking sites.

I suspect the newer users will probably like the new feature as everything these days is cross-pollinated (Twitter, FB, IM, etc.)

We’re seeing how people like it.

FTR, if you link your account you can pick and choose which questions you ppost to FB.

@andrew if i opt for the answers thing under the FB options, does literally every answer i give get posted to my FB page?

andrew's avatar

@eponymoushipster No, for now, no responses; only questions that you chose to publish by checking the box.

Judi's avatar

wheww….. Thank goodness!!

eponymoushipster's avatar

@andrew good good! when i went thru the options, one of them seemed to indicate your answers went up on FB, too. cool.

Cool new feature. Is it just me or does anyone else think @andrew ‘s new avatar looks a bit like Skippy from Family Ties?

jonsblond's avatar

@Dr_C I would say lol but @andrew wouldn’t approve.

wtf… lol!

Dr_C's avatar

@jonsblond you are an amazing person which is why i’ll not say anything bad about your “Denver Donkeys” avatar… @Blondesjon’s Packers avatar is ok… wtf. You’re still awesome!

I just tried to cross-post my last question to facebook but it didn’t work as far as i can tell. It did post to Fluther. Anyone know why?

Judi's avatar

I often times come across a great question, with great answers and sometimes wish I could post THAT question to my facebook page.

Drgrafenbergmd's avatar

With all of the new software that claims to expedite posting to multiple sites I wouldn’t be surprised to see a broader collection of “post to” options soon.
