Instead of just having a new post show up as a title and a link when the system gets around to checking your feed, you could push an excerpt and an image to FriendFeed the instant the post goes up. - Ken Sheppardson

There is a WordPress plugin to support SUP, which would accomplish the "instant" part of your goal: http://wordpress.org/extend.... To get images you just need to support MediaRSS (I believe there is also a WordPress plugin for that). - Benjamin Golub

Cool, where do I sign...........? - Kevin J Hatton

Nice idea! - Don Bonaddio

Nice. I will use this... Thank ;) - Semih Masat™

Benjamin: I knew somebody'd mention SUP :-) I'd rather not add some intermediate service/protocol, I just want the ability push directly via a single plug-in, preferably with a UI component that gives you control over what image or images are added, select the excerpt, select what groups the post goes to, etc. - Ken Sheppardson

What I want is probably similar to what Ken you want - something to push the title & link& image as a post, and an excerpt as a comment to FriendFeed, which would then go to Twitter. The group selecter would be ultra cool on top of that - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

Yeah, I'm using PUB-Sup, but what would be even more interesting is something that pushes, and tracks comments of the pushed post at the same time. I'd like to have real-time comments on each blog post. - Jesse Stay

Matthew: Yes. - Ken Sheppardson

Ken: Have you seen this one: http://sudarmuthu.com/wordpre... - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

Just found it, looking into it now - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

WP-Sup (http://neothoughts.com/wp-sup/) + MediaRSS (http://wordpress.org/extend...) plugins will do the job - Bwana ☠

Rob: Cool. Looks like Sudar's around http://friendfeed.com/sudar Maybe he'll drop by... - Ken Sheppardson

Just sent him a tweet. Hopefully he'l join us :) Looks to be in india - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

OK, I get it, guys. I know how SUP works and I know you can use SUP and MediaRSS to accomplish what I want. But I don't want to ping some API to tell it to go pull something from a feed... I want to make a single call to the FriendFeed API designed for creating entries http://code.google.com/p... - Ken Sheppardson

Shouldn't be that hard to build. You can do it Ken :) - Bwana ☠

Bwana: I think Sudar has already. :-) I'm going to put his implementation through its paces over the weekend. - Ken Sheppardson

Oh ok cool... Hmmm.. I'd try it, but I'm not sure how it'll affect Backtype Connect on my blog. I want to be sure the FF comments get pulled in correctly. - Bwana ☠

Bwana: not sure exactly what you want to try - but in general any entry that links to your posts will be connected by BT Connect -- we do of course try our best to cut out things like auto snippets of text that appear as comments when using the FF bookmarklet. - Mike Montano

Mike - I just wanted to be sure if I remove my RSS feed from FriendFeed and use this solution, will my comments get pulled back into my blog. I gather the plugin would have to only link to my blog from FriendFeed, and Backtype does the rest - Bwana ☠

Yeah, it seems like once the plugin creates the entry on FriendFeed with a link to your blog post, you're home free, no matter how that entry is created. - Ken Sheppardson

I like I like - Michael Ehline

Hi Guys, nice to know that the Plugin (Post2FF) which I created around 9 months back is of use to someone :) I am take the code dust it off and will add the new features that you requested. Stay tuned :) - Sudar

Awesome! Thank you very much Sudar! - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

Of note, Sudar: it would be most handy if we could select the link that is published on the entry - either the linkt ot the blog entry or the ff.im link. (wasn't clear to me if the API actually supports this?) On most of my blog posts, I'd like to direct people straight to the post, but someone or some entries might prefer linking to the FriendFeed post/discussion - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

I am done with the modifications to my Plugin to add new features like choosing the room to which the link to be posted, selecting images etc. Will release it after completing the testing. If anyone is willing to do beta testing, just ping me. - Sudar

I'd love to give it a try :-) - guruvan (Rob Nelson)

Yay Sudar with his remedy to dust off (Post2FF) - Janaree Nore

Sudar: Ping. :-) - Ken Sheppardson

@Ken, Please DM your email address and I will send the Plugin for beta testing. If everything goes well, I will be able to release the Plugin tomorrow by this time. - Sudar

Sudar, sounds interesting. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

So guys, finally I have updated my Post to FriendFeed Plugin with support for rooms. You can get the new version at http://sudarmuthu.com/blog... - Sudar

Also let me know if you face any issues. - Sudar

I want it thanks Sudar! - Robert Freeze

check out http://wordpress.org/extend... - Kostantinos Koukopoulos

Are we able to do the revere post from FF -> Wordpress, not as a rss thing but as a post? - Chirag Chamoli

@Chirag, I am not sure if I understood your question. Can you explain it a bit? - Sudar

nice! like the idea Ken. - .LAG liked that

I'm not sure to have understood the question: I saw that Feedburner now works in realtime, so you just have to use that instead of the standard feed - Roberto from fftogo

I wanted to understand If I can autopost from friendfeed to Wordpress. I am using the rss feed in the sidebar, instead I want the stuff to be added to wordpress as a post. - Chirag Chamoli from email

@Chirag, You can install WP-O-Mattic WordPress Plugin (http://devthought.com/project...) and use the FF rss as input to publish from FF -> WordPress. (I haven't tried it, so not sure if it will work 100%) - Sudar

@Sundar: Thanks I will start working on that. - Chirag Chamoli

I am interested in using Sundar's plugin. Is it compatible with WordPress 2.8.3? - Skyler Call

@Skyler Call, It should be compatible, since it doesn't use any functions which were changed in 2.8+ Anyways I will check it and will bump up the supported version in readme file. - Sudar
