As you might have noticed I’m slowly coming to appreciate Ping.fm as a tool to update my microblogs, or status. Some Twitter and Brightkite subscribers started complaining that they were getting two messages. The first was a update from Ping.FM directly to Twitter. The second went from Ping.fm to Brightkite – which adds the geolocation – and was then posted to Twitter.
It looked a little like this:
Sitting at home – http://bkite.com/01wFQ about 2 hours ago from Brightkite
Sitting at home about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
Sitting at home about 2 hours ago from Ping.fm
As Brightkite sends the message on to Twitter with my current geolocation added it wasn’t necessary for Ping.fm to directly update Twitter.
The only things I still have which updates Twitter directly are:
- me
- Brightkite
- TwitterFeed (for my blog)
