Use Sendible to post photos to multiple social networks at once

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

We’re excited to announce a small but powerful new feature on Sendible.

You can now attach pictures to the posts you send to any of the services you use – including Facebook Pages, Facebook Status updates, Myspace, Twitter, LinkedIn and more. (When posting to Twitter, Sendible will automatically store your image on TwitPic and append the TwitPic url to your tweets.)

To attach a picture to a post, simply click the small icon below the message box and you’ll be able to browse for an image on your computer.  With the free version of Sendible, you can attach one picture per post. If you need to attach more than one picture per message – we recommend upgrading to one of our paid accounts.

Scheduled Facebook Page and Status updates a lot more reliable now

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

Great news! We’ve managed to make scheduled Facebook posts and status updates a lot more reliable on Sendible by implementing Facebook Connect.

To get it working, we recommend doing the following:
  1. Go to Add/Edit Services and remove your Facebook Page and Facebook Status Update accounts – if you’ve already set one up.
  2. Then, configure them up again and you’ll be prompted to grant Facebook permission. Make sure you select the Facebook Pages you’d like to give access to from Sendible.
  3. Enter your details and save changes.
Your status and page updates should now be a lot more reliable and all your links should go through successfully.
Let us know how it goes.
For more info about scheduling Facebook status and page updates see our previous post.
