It is obviously quite a chore to have to update Twitter, Facebook, Pownce etc separately.</p><p>Commenter <a
href="http://www.bakaism.net/">reactive</a> pointed out <a
href="http://ping.fm">ping.fm</a>, a website which in fact I use. ping.fm allows you to update one site, through a variety of means, which will then pass those updates on to 32 other websites.</p><p>ping.fm amazingly allows updates to be textual or graphical (you can set ping.fm to upload images to Flickr etc.). The ability to send videos is going to be launched soon.</p><p><span
id="more-8593"></span>The site will &#8216;ping&#8217; most major social networking sites updates: Twitter, Pownce, FriendFeed, Facebook, MySpace, del.icio.us and Jaiku. Smaller ones like <a
href="http://www.ghacks.net/2008/08/03/kwippy-invites/">Kwippy</a> are also supported.</p><p>Updates can be sent through instant messaging (GTalk, MSN, Yahoo! or AIM), unlike Twitter at the moment, from iGoogle, Facebook, an iPhone, WAP or SpinVox (a service which allows a voice to be converted to text on a phone). This is in addition to email (and therefore MMS, and on some carriers SMS) and the web.</p><p>With ping.fm it&#8217;s just as quick to update all your social networks as it is one. It is only one way however, and other peoples&#8217; updates will not be received using it. Another similar service, which is a little more complex is <a
