TweetDeck, the most popular Twitter application, has added Facebook integration.  This update allows you to use one simple application to interface with both your Twitter followers and Facebook friends.

After installing the application you can easily add your Facebook profile by clicking the icon shown above.  After you enter your Facebook credentials the status of your Facebook friends will be added as a new column (third on the right below).

You can now post directly to Facebook or Twitter right from within TweetDeck.  From the TweetDeck blog:

The other element is the ability to direct your tweet/update to post to twitter or facebook or both directly within the tweet window.

…following pretty much unanimous yes vote on whether to auto block message which start with @username from posting to Facebook, v0.24.1 has this functionality and is now available

In order to post to Facebook you must check the Facebook checkbox shown above and then confirm the “Allow Status Updates from TweetDeck” shown below.

Success!

This new version is considered a pre-release but can be found at the following TweetDeck blog post:

What’s Your Twitter Grade?

by Scott on January 10, 2009

Did you know that you can have your Twitter profile graded?  The same people (Hupspot) that brought you the Website Grader also offer a profile grader for Twitter.  I’ve really just started seriously using Twitter so my grade is a measly 26 out of 100!

From the Twitter Grader website:

The Twitter Grade measures the reach and authority of a Twitter user.

Help me raise my grade and add me to the list of people you’re following:

Thankfully, Smart Productivity has a website grade of 89 out of 100, I can sleep tonight :).

If you use Twitter please let me know what your grade is in the comments.
