Facebook Public Posts Can Now Automatically Update To Twitter

Facebook Twitter

I just noticed this morning that if you login to your Facebook account and then navigate to http://www.facebook.com/twitter you can link your personal profile to your Twitter account.

Previously Facebook allowed this type of updating to Twitter but only from Facebook Pages which are different from your personal profile.

This change means that public updates you make to your:

  • Status updates
  • Photos
  • Links
  • Videos
  • Notes
  • Events

Can now automatically be sent to the Twitter account which you’ve linked to your Facebook. Remember that ONLY those items set as PUBLIC will flow to Twitter – which means that what’s marked as  private on Facebook stays on Facebook.


This change is helpful to those who want to avoid having to visit multiple services to post updates. With the proper configuration as shown above you can now automatically send a tweet for each public update on your Facebook account.
