My new blog post: Online social networking: Stop wasting time manually updating profiles.

Are you tired sharing your same thoughts at different social networks? Do you find annoying, copying the same exact message from Facebook to Twitter, LinkedIn or Google+ to reach out all your friends or followers?

Honorable mention to Mike Elgan  who was the inspiration for making the move to Google+.

Also promoting (but not affiliated with) Friends+Me excellent service for saving me time while keeping social networking profiles up-to-date automatically.

We have finally been able to solve the problem with the grouping of photos reposted by Friends+Me to Facebook timeline.

What users need to do is to extend Friends+Me permissions to connected Facebook accounts, the access to photos is needed, and to reconnect Facebook accounts. To reconnect Facebook account you have to go to the account and look for “Settings” menu and “Reconnect” option.

Once Facebook accounts are reconnected, everything should start to work as expected.
