One of the best things about Twitter is that, with a little tweaking, it allows you to easily update Facebook without going through the hassle of logging into Facebook and dealing with all the distractions. A week or two ago, however, I realized that the connection between Twitter and Facebook no longer seemed to be working.
Here’s how I was able to fix it.
Note that if you’ve told Facebook to force https connections, you’ll have to turn them off in order to reconnect this application – it’ll prompt you to do so during the process. Don’t forget to turn https 0n once you’re done, else you’ll be Firesheep fodder. Here’s how.
Note while you’re there that Facebook lists the computers that are authenticated to your account and, like Google, allows you to disconnect any you don’t recognize.
If you haven’t connected your Twitter account to Facebook yet, the instructions here should be a good start. Hit the comments if you have questions or comments about the procedure.

Aaron, does this fix affect me since I have been using Yoono.com to cross post and log my post into FB,T and linkedin. What say you.
I say they don't have an Android app, so I can't use it when I'm mobile. I don't want to be tied to a specific service, so I want the services to be hooked together so it doesn't matter how I tweet. If you're comfortable with Yoono, I'd say keep using it and don't worry about hooking the services together.
Aaron, I will give it a try with my Droid so I can do mobile. I want to be more mobile in my work applications so I don't tie myself to my desk. I just picked up a I Pad 1 which was a cast off from someone upgrading so I'll give it a try. It was a good deal and came with extra's.
How do I cruise Twitter looking for more followers. I want to get more people following our auction company. If you have suggestions let me know.
Why do you want more people following your auction company on Twitter? If it's so you can tell them about auctions, that's what advertising is for, not social media. If it's because you want to build a community so you can provide better customer service, make your tweets relevant to interacting with your company, don't just tweet about your upcoming auctions.
