同步IM签名 – MSN – Twitter - Facebook

  Microblog is handy, Twitter is cool, but first you need to move your network on it.
  IM is a good substitute, you network is already there, your microblogging task is … change the signature, and then your friends can get it.
  Twitter can just be a place where to store these microblog entries, the history of signatures.

  But unfortunately i use MSN heavily. I don’t know why doesn’t Twitter support MSN, But that’s true Twitter hasn’t improved too much. Currently you still can’t even delete Twitter entry on some OS, some browsers.(I tried both IE and Firefox on Windows XP), The solution is via the API, change the URL to http://twitter.com/status/destroy/12345xxxx.xml. It’s funny, isn’t it?
  A good thing always has many clones, my choice is Fanfou, a Chinese twitter-like website, sorry it doesn’t have English version yet.

  Recently I started to use Facebook, more and more. I wonder if i can synchronize the MSN signature and Facebook status, MSN -> Facebook. I searched the Applications of Facebook, the MSN Status app doesn’t work. Then I want to find a way through MSN -> Fanfou -> Facebook, but it still doesn’t work.
  I found twitter app works fine, it synchronize the Facebook status and Twitter update, so the new way is MSN -> Twitter -> Facebook. It looks I have to get back to the old question: how can I synchronize the Twitter with the MSN signature?

  One solution is TwitterIM, but its last activity is 2007 July, this project looks dead.
  Another choice is Messenger Plus! Live, after installed, import a TwitterSync script, but it still doesn’t work.

  I am in my half way, it’s driving me mad. Any good idea?
