How to update Facebook from Twitter

This post looks at how you can easily update Facebook and Twitter at the same time, while only visiting Twitter, or your favourite Twitter client.
  1. Go to Facebook, and search for "Selective Tweets"

    Select the App with that name.
  2. Type in your Twitter handle in the box next to the "@", and click "save"
  3. Then just append "#fb" to the end of any tweet, and it will automatically be sent to Facebook as your status. Read past the break for a few little extras
  4. One final thing you can do is choose to be able to put the #fb anywhere in the tweet. The developer mentions that there can be some complications to this, however. If you want to do this, go to the settings, and put a tick in the box next to "Allow the #fb tag anywhere in the tweet?" You should then be able to put #fb anywhere within the tweet to send it to Facebook.
