Using Gmail to Update Facebook, Friendster, Multiply, Plurk, and Twitter

Reposting a short article I posted in a tech blog... baka may maitulong sa mga nakablock na Facebook, etc sa offices nyo. :-)

In this Web 2.0 generation, social networks and microblogging platforms are almost as essential as telecommunications devices. But do you really have to login to all of your networks (Facebook, Friendster, Multiply, Plurk, and Twitter) just to say you are “in a meeting; will check my e-mails tonight”?

I found out a way how you can simultaneously update all these networks just by sending one message to a certain platform — through GMail chat. OK, fine, some of you are probably doing this already, but for those who doesn’t have any idea how to do this, please read on.

I will be assuming, at the very least that you have a Plurk and Gmail accounts. If not, create your own. The first step is to configure your Plurk account such that it can be updated through Gmail. How do you do that? See picture below:

Setting your Plurk Bot

Click the alert icon and a dialog box will pop up. Refer to the tip encircled in the picture above. Actually, you just have to click the link (Get started now) and everything is as easy as ABC. There will be an instruction for you to add the Plurk Bot to your list of friends, and as soon as it’s done, you can now update your Plurk page thorugh Gmail chat. You just have to open up a chat window with your Plurk bot, and send message to it. Your messages will be saved as a Plurk update.

So, once you are done with that, all you have to do is configure your Plurk account so that all your updates in Plurk will be reflected as a status updates in Facebook, Friendster, Multiply, and Twitter. See below:

Your Bot

Isn’t that a convenience?

All About Food

Hi, Guys.

A friend of mine started a blog on food (mostly on her adventure re fastfood, simple food kiosk, etc). You might wannna visit her site.

(I hope she won't mind I am sharing her blog to you, hehehe.)

Obama, US President, Ate in a Burger Stand

The pictures below are from Raissa Robles's blog. Just want to share them with you. And nope, this has nothing to do with GMA having a 1-million-peso worth of dinner in New York. *wink*

 

  

  

 

Obama is the Man!

Thank You, Ninoy and Other Heroes, Not just for Saving Our Country...

Guys, did you know that two long weekends (well, for those who are working in the corporate world) are fast approaching now? August 21 is Ninoy Aquino Day (so, Friday to Sunday) and August 31 is National Heroes Day (so, Sunday to Monday). This means you should already be planning your trip to that very beautiful beach up north or down south as early as now. In fact it might be too late already.

Well, actually, it's not yet too late. I mean, you still have at least two weeks before the first long weekend, and more than three weeks for the second long weekend. And if you have your own car (unfortunately for me, my budget/savings is only good for a car seat), going out of town is really not that complicated. You just fill your car with gas, choose a destination, and whoala! You're on your way to your destination.

As for me, I am planning to spend those two long weekends watching 24 and House! (Remember that post for Patricia? :-)) Hehehe. But if anyone of you would like to invite me for a joy ride, please, please, do not hesitate to do so.

I'm Getting Married

Well, that was the plan crafted by my two evil siblings the other night. And you know what, save for one important detail, I almost believe it's really going to happen. They made a list of songs, guests (GMA is actually in the list), reception, basically everything you need for the wedding. And my geeky bro (who plays with transistors, capacitors, and circuit boards during his free time -- and plays guitar, too) recorded a musical piece with all the instruments being played by him -- keyboard, guitar, and drums; the vocal part was recorded by my sister. How did  he do that? The bro downloaded an emulator-kind of software, then, he used the PC keyboard as, well, keyboard and drum set. He has a fine guitar. He played and recorded the instruments separately, then, the vocals, then mixed them after that. The result is so beauuuutifful!

I think they were able to cover almost everything except for one thing: Jessica Alba's "Yes, I want to marry you" part. If anyone can help me contact her, please tell her a wedding plan is already in place.

PS: As per the wedding planners (my evil siblings), Ensabahnur, PJVP, The Banana Man, and TheHusband are supposed to render a BSB dance/song performance. You have to watch out for that!
