Update: new version of posty here. 

Are you a microblogger? Wanna quickly post on your social places? Posty is for you! To update a social network, three steps are usually needed:

  • Login
  • Write message
  • Click post

After a while, the update of your profile can get boring, because of repeated actions.With Posty you write a message once, choose the services to update, and click post. That’s all!

  1. OK, once you have Facebook & Tumblr added, I can definitely see this being better than Ping.fm, but I am still wanting something that can give me responses like Twhirl, but from more than just Twitter – I guess I’m really just thinking of something that will add Pownce replies…… I would love an app like Twhirl for FriendFeed…. OK, sorry, this has turned from a comment to a beg for more software!

    I have installed it, but just wanna ask, what does the max posts mean? Surely you won’t shut us down after 10 – 20 posts!! :)

    Friendfeed will soon release API. So I will put it in my todo list.
    Max 10-20 means the number of posts you can visualize each time you load a timeline (public or personal).

    don’t worry … I already changed that label to “Max Posts to load”, which should be clearer.

  5. Nice app… Why, though, do links in the app open in IE when I have Firefox configured as my default browser?

    Thanks for the feedback! I didn’t notice this behavior. I will check and let you know.
    Thanks again.

    I bet a beer you are using vista.

    From Adobe release notes:

    On Windows Vista, calling the navigateToURL() function may not open the default browser; it always opens Internet Explorer. To workaround this problem, go to Start > Default Programs > Set Program Access and Computer Defaults, expand Custom, select the radio button next to the application you want to set as the system-wide default browser (for example, Mozilla Firefox) and apply the setting.

    (from: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb403153)

    I call exactly that function.
