Who doesn’t want to have maximum connections on Twitter? And what can be better than having your loyal friends from Facebook follow you on the micromessaging service? Well Twables’ fb140 is giving you that opportunity to have you find those friends on Twitter too.
The service isn’t that difficult at all and all that is needed is simply following three steps to discover and get connected with them. Once you are on the site the fb140 requires you to connect via Facebook Connect so that is can find out which one of your friends on Facebook are also on Twitter. Again the issue is with trust that you need to put with these third party apps and services. But I bet it would have been blocked already if it had anything to harm users.
The second step is to sign in using your Twitter account. This syncs your Twitter with Facebook and then figures out which one of your friends have done the same. With this done you are now linked with all your friends who are already using both the services. Impressive, but I think it has its issues too. Which ones? The primary being if it interconnects activities across the two services, there will be an awful amount messages and updates making way to both networks and might just appear to be very spammy for friends.
Apart from that, I personally don’t find the urge to have the same group of people, especially each and everyone of my Facebook friends to be following me on Twitter because each of the services I use is updated and having common friends on either would create troubles. It already did when a couple of friends thought I was spamming their feeds with links. The issue was similar that I had interconnected accounts. While it is good for those who are into some very loyal following from amongst a group of friends, I would personally not go for it if you are very regular with updates.
