Social Networking, Stop The Insanity!

Are you overwhelmed with all the Social Networking sites.  Hopefully you realize the importance of using them.  If not, be sure to read my blog post, “Tame the Social Media Beast.”  I agree with you there are too many sites to join and keep up with them all.  There are several more popular sites that I would recommend (Facebook, Linkedin).  Social Networking sites are great for connecting with colleagues, service providers and don’t forget the importance of past clients.  They are also very good for keeping your network aware of new listings, posts to your blog, and updates of your success.  Here is a great video explaining Social Networking in Plain English.

So the question is how do you maintain all of these Social Networking sites as well as you blogs. There is an easy way.  It’s called Ping.fm (You’re not seeing things, it is Ping.fm and NOT Ping.com).  Here’s how Ping.fm explains what they do.

Ping.fm was created for the sole purpose of making it as easy as possible to share your posts with the world. Now you don’t have to fumble around the web in order to post anymore, you can just post once, and be done with it.

The idea came about when making some posts to Twitter and Tumblr. The idea of posting the exact same information in two places seemed a bit tedious, so Ping.fm was born.

Now this site is in beta so you’ll need a beta code in order to sign up.  You can use this one (pingscompany“).  Now this beta code will eventually expire.  If it stops working just go here and you can request your own code.  I use this site almost every day.  I don’t know how I could maintain so many sites without it.  Take a look at it and let me know what you think.

You never disappoint Chris, keep going. For a person like me who is technologically challenged and also a procrastinator, this definitely sounds interesting and viable.
