LinksAlpha
As with all things recently I started building a new connector API to connect to multiple networks at the same time. What is the purpose for this? Well I have an insane work schedule and social networking is just not within my daily schedule. So I decided to start building a new program that will hook into my website, the goal would be as soon as I post something on my website it should push the post to all my social networks.
I recently rebuilt my site and decided to just to check and see if there already is a WordPress plug-in that may be able to just what I was starting to build. To my surprise there already is a site that already does this and it also includes analytics. Best thing of all is it supports all the networks that I am interested in and also allows 5 networks free. So how does this work? First you go to their website and sign up for an account by logging in with your already available accounts... I decided to use my facebook account since it's already one of the networks I want to directly post to.
Here is a quick summary of how you can get this running on WordPress...
