GSwebmaster Want to automate fan page updates some? 0 Sep 9 2009, 12:16 PM EDT by GSwebmaster

I have found a way to update our fan page at Good Shepherd a lot easier. Since I'm responsible for the content on Sundays, I reduce my workload but setting up some automated updates in pre production. First I set up pre-written updates to 2 different twitter accounts using www.socialoomph.com. Then I found a way to update fan page(or facebook profile) using "Selective Twitter Status" at www.facebook.com/selectivetwitter.

Basically you can update fan page from tweets with hashtag of #fb from a selected twitter account.

Any questions? You can reply here and I will see if I can answer them for you.

welstechtrainer Notes about posting video on facebook fan pages 0 Aug 19 2009, 1:51 PM EDT by welstechtrainer

Received this message from John Shoosmith, who administers the Redeemer, yakima, WA facebook fan page -

Sallie -
Thought I'd share some info about videos that can be posted on church "Fan" pages. Here's what I learned posting a sermon to our "wall".

The limit is 20 minutes duration and "1024MB".

Yesterday I attempted to upload a file that was 20:07 long. It was rejected for being too long, but then several hours later it appeared after I had pared it down to 19:56 and posted again. So, for a while I had 2 videos on the wall.

Quality-wise, I was able to upload a huge 1 gigabyte file in "Xbox HD widescreen". It looks great, especially if you don't expand it. If you expand the video to full screen, it is definately NOT HD quality.
