The Bermuda Triangle of Productivity

How true is this.. People get up these days in the morning and the first site they open as soon as they get online is Facebook.. Even before checking their mails, then comes Gmail.. Twitter yeah for people like me but I don't think their are many folks who use twitter as much as they use Facebook..

Gmail: Made our life easier by providing us a simple and quick emailing system which is integrated with so many other things which we all use in our daily lives like Google, Google+, Blog, Reader, Picasa, Youtube etc etc etc.. Everything at one place - Via Gmail or Google..

Facebook: The interconnected lives I say.. Makes you keep in touch with your Chuddy Buddies (Nappy Friends) even though you don't talk for ages.

Twitter: Awesomeness at one place for everything which includes Fun, News, Technology, Pouring thoughts without thinking, Talk all the rubbish and sensible stuff, Make new friends and flirt around with people you like :P

Facebook 2.0 for Blackberry OS6

New Facebook for Blackberry OS6 users.. This was released a couple of months ago.. I gave it a try just now.. Looks great.. The interface is totally new.. You have got plenty of new options. The applications is Fast, Looks Royal and has that different feeling when you use it on your blackberry smart phone. 

This is the Profile page. You have 3 separate bars to see your wall, personal information and photos. Looks nice, doesn't it? ;) 

You can see Facebook with a drop down arrow on the top of the page. Click that and you will get the below page with all the facebook options. You can access almost everything from this page.. Just scroll to wherever you want to go and press the trackpad and it opens in a split.

You have 3 small icons on the top right of the page, Click the top right and you get the below page showing you the Notifications, Unread Messages and New Friend Requests. 

The background is kinda transparent when you open the notifications or the options pages which gives it a better look. Like I said in my previous post for New Twitter for Blackberry OS6  , the new Facebook application for blackberry OS6 running phones looks like a matured app for full fletched usage.

This new app is no doubt Very sweet. I haven't come across any bugs yet.. Will keep a track and update if I find anything worth sharing in the blog or on my twitter.

Sync Your Twitter and Facebook Status Updates ;)

Well, managing friends and social networks isn’t exactly convenient these days because there are so many online services and communities to help you stay in touch with and keep track of other people — Facebook, Twitter, Ning, Plaxo, FriendFeed, Loopt, Brightkite, GChat…the list just goes on and on.  One thing you can do to make it all a little easier is to sync your Facebook and Twitter accounts so that the status messages you enter on one site show up at the other too. Here’s how to do it:

Syncing Facebook and Twitter from Facebook:

1) Search for “Twitter” in Facebook and add the first “Twitter” application that shows up in the search results. (It’s made by Twitter itself.)

2) Allow Twitter to access your profile.

3) Log into your Twitter account (via the Twitter application inside Facebook).

Now your Facebook messages will also show up in Twitter! But there’s one more step to send information from Twitter back to Facebook…

4)  After you test out the Facebook to Twitter functionality by typing a message and clicking on “Update,” click on “Allow Twitter to Update Your Facebook Status”

5) Allow status updates from Twitter back to Facebook.

6) Check to see if it works, by logging into twitter.com from a different browser window and entering a status…

Well, as you can see below, it worked! If you’re an avid user of Twitter and Facebook and you’re finding it difficult to manage status updates, you might want to think about merging the two utilities…
