Fixed and improved repost of Google+ Checkin to Facebook as photo.

Friends+Me supports bit.ly shortener.

Bit.ly shortener support is finally here.

Friends+Me allows you to choose between goo.gl and bit.ly shortener or you can disable use of URL shortener.

Also I have found out, that Facebook is blocking some goo.gl links. It’s crazy. I can’t tell why, but some links shortened by goo.gl are blocked. On the other side all links shortened by bit.ly are ok.

If you want to reduce failed reposts of your Google+ activities to Facebook we strongly suggest to use Bit.ly shortener.

Hopefully bit.ly support will help us to get rid of these stupid errors Warning: This Message Contains Blocked Content… and The content you’re trying to share includes a link that’s been blocked for being spammy….

Merry christmas everyone.

One of our latest updates caused duplicit reposts and affected a few users. Sometimes beta is really beta 🙂

We are very sorry.

If you share post to public community, please use  hashtag otherwise Friends+Me will repost this shared post twice.

There’s still no way of how to  distinguish public share from community share.

Newly created community posts do not need special treatment.

Share Google+ to LinkedIn

We gladly present you repost from personal Google+ to LinkedIn. This eagerly awaited feature is finally available to all Friends+Me users.

All you have to do is to connect your LinkedIn account to Friends+Me and choose whether you want your reposts to be seen by everyone or only by LinkedIn users you’re connected to.

LinkedIn limits the number of user shares per day to 25 but it should be more than enough. Google+ activities are shared to LinkedIn only when a control hashtag is used. It is a preferred option due to the daily limit.

Enjoy.

Good news everyone,

Friends+Me received higher Google+ API quota.

The interval between reposts has been restored to 5 minutes. Full speed ahead.

We would love to thank Google+ Developer Relations Team for granting Friends+Me such a big quota and to all people who helped to make it so.

Friends+Me is back in business.

Google+ amazing new features

Those ghastly ghastly ghastly 🙂 Friends+Me shortlinks have been replaced with goo.gl shortener URLs.

Hello everybody,
  it is amazing to see so many people want to use Friends+Me.  

I am afraid we got into a trouble. There is so many new users and so fast that Friends+Me have run out of Google+ API daily limit. I’ve sent request to increase that limit almost 9 days ago and yesterday twice, but still no answer.

If you know someone from Google who can speed up processing of our quota request, it would be most appreciate if you contact them.

Again I am very sorry for the inconvenience and I hope you’ll give Friends+Me another try after quota limit problem will be solved.

Thank you all.

PS. To process all new users (with current Google+ API daily limit) we had to increase interval between reposts to 30 minutes. This way the service will not simply stop, but will perform it’s function (only a little slower).
