Auto-post to social networks

finid

On the profile settings pages, it would be nice to have a list of the popular social networks, just as is shown in the image below.

The idea being that I can input my credentials in the social network(s) I want my contributions to be auto-posted on. Make sense?

that's a pretty neat idea. great for exposure. also, could probably grab those permissions on registration itself, if the user signed up using those social networks.

Would have to review what we store from facebook/tw/etc to see if this is possible.

I'm initially loathe to add social network integration to such a degree, but who am I to say no to feature requests

So many feature requests, so little time.

It's supposed to be off by default, so it's not something that's going to be forced on users.

What's the state of this? I need it too!

Use ifttt.com from the RSS feed rather than forcing social networks on people. If you catch my drift.

It's not forcing. It's optional. Assume the users want it. How to use ifttt.com for this task?
