I love to share.
I have three tools I like to use to help promote my stories and posts after I have gotten them written up. If you follow me on Twitter or have befriended me on Facebook, you might have seen a do a lot of self-pluggage. Want to know how I get my socializing done?
Ping.fm – This has quickly become one of my favorite tools to use when it comes to all the various networking sites, micro blogs, and everything else I have joined. From Ping.fm I can micromanage updates to over 30 different online sites. That means instead of going to MySpace to update there, and Facebook to update there, then Twitter to update over there, I can save time and plug myself one place – and it gets sent into all the ones I am a member of.
AddThis – For the left-overs that are a little harder to promote via Ping.fm (like leaving bulletins on MySpace) I use AddThis. This is more of the public’s way of sharing my posts, but I love to use it to. AddThis simply makes it easy for your visitors to bookmark and share your content with others.
ConveyThis – Also worth giving a shout-out to is ConveyThis. Working much in the same way as AddThis does with bookmarking, Convey this lets you pick from a number of different translation services to translate the web page you are looking for. This way, my wonderful foreign readers have a quick and easy way to get anything I have posted roughly translated into something they can read. Now I am aware that no online translator is perfect – however with the multiple choices, ConveyThis will at least let you try a few to see which one you like best.
Have a favorite socializing or sharing tool I might have missed?
