Twitter recently made changes to their third party authentication system that may require you to reauthorize FeedAgg to post to your twitter stream if you have enabled this feature. If you haven’t seen any of your feed posts come through Twitter lately, you will want to delete your current Twitter posting link and re-enable it in your feeds account page.
When you log into your account and view your feeds page, you’ll now notice we’ve added sharing options to the major social networks including twitter, facebook, delicious, stumbleupon and more. Click a button and you’ll be taken to that services submission page. Try it out and let us know what you think!
Fixed a twitter posting bug that was affecting some users. You may want to reconfirm your twitter posting time interval under your twitter info as some feeds were changed because of the bug.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could update your twitter feed when you update your RSS/XML feed?
We thought so too.
Now when you look at your feeds list you will see a link for “Twitter.” When you click that link you will be taken to the 3 step setup process to integrate into Twitter. Enter the Twitter username you want to post to, authorize, then finally select your update frequency. From there we will check your feed at the frequency your specify and post any changes to your twitter account.
For those worried about handing over your Twitter password to another web site, worry not, we are using the OAuth protocol to verify against Twitter so you don’t need to give us your Twitter password.
If you haven’t been to your user account control panel in a while you should stop by. I recently made some pretty significant changes.
1. A new look. The old look was getting cramped and needed an update.
2. Feed Stats. A lot of them. Some of the stats available allow you to see what browsers people are using, what search strings people are using to get to your feed, and then what links people are clicking to leave your page.
3. Twitter Integration. Another post will follow detailing this more.
I’m really hoping that these changes will greatly help our publishers promote their feeds. Give me some feedback and let me know what you think!
