That’s awesome work guys! I love Hootsuite more and more

You guys did an awesome good job!

These are fantastic upgrades to Hoot Suite which will help improve my productivity. Thanks!

These are great additions. After using twhirl and tweetdeck for months, I converted to Hootsuite about two months ago and the addition of fb, ping and linkedin will be huge for managing social media accounts. Thanks!

[Reply]

HootSuite is clearly fattening out into a fully-fledged (pun half intended) communications hub. So well done!

I do especially like the one-click “Show Conversation” button, although my intuition tells me the list of Tweets is upside down. Also, you’re posting the same Tweet twice, which wouldn’t be the case if you switched the order of the list.

Additionally, since adding integration for / with Facebook and LinkedIn, I’ve now got two tabs both called “Wayne Smallman”. Would it not make sense to add the small social network icons to the main tabs, rather to the inner columns?

[Reply]

Excellent update guys, missed you while you were down! The Facebook integration was the only thing I really missed moving from TweetDeck, so I’m really glad to see it in there.

[Reply]

Cool features! Thanks.

[Reply]

HootSuite just gets better and better!

Well done guys!

@Rokkster

[Reply]

I like the extra support of LinkedIn and Facebook, good job!
At the moment I got a Facebook Page linked to my personal account, is it possible to post updates to the Facebook (Fan) Page using Hootsuite?

[Reply]

Hooray! Very helpful tools…you all are geniuses! (But of course you already knew that!)

[Reply]

Great integrations!

Can you also integrate Hyves.nl (more then 8 million dutch users) into hootsuite. So we can post directly to hyves. The work with opensocial you can see some info here: http://hyves-api.hyves.nl/

[Reply]

“Oops! Something happened that we did not expect.”

Is all I get under a connection in Linkedin function

[Reply]

Hi, so far the update is GREAT! One question though; can the new Facebook functionality also update Pages and Groups? Or just your linked profile?

cheers,
Woody

[Reply]

The new features are great! Thank you.
Is there any possibility to connect also a Facebook Fanpage to update it? I just found the possibility for my personal Profile on Facebook.

[Reply]

Wow this is AWESOME!

Is there the ability to add facebook PAGES to hootsuite and not just normal accounts? Add this ability along with the upcoming iPhone app and I’m in heaven.

The integration of lists is great too. Phasing out of groups I think is a good thing as you couldn’t share groups but you can enter in lists that others have used.

Been using hootsuite for a while now, was impressed then over the freeking moon now!

Would love to be able to use FB pages though but I think I can manage something with ping.fm is this true?

You guys are doing a great job! Keep it up Can’t wait for the iPhone app

[Reply]

Love the idea of facebook. Just wondering how this can work with Fanpages and groups. I run a twitter account for an organisation and we have both a fanpage and group page and it would be great to access those in hootsuite

[Reply]

I love your new features. A few of them I missed & now they become real. THX very much. Keep on going.

[Reply]

Great! I almost opened a Tweetdeck account so I could use these options, grateful I can stay with the Owl! Looks like it works just fine.

[Reply]

Thanks for those great new features! It’s very useful to update Facebook through Hootsuite. Nice!

[Reply]

I think it’s great that Facebook is now integrated – makes Hootsuite even more invaluable as a Social Media collaboration tool. But I don’t like the fact that the characters now count UP rather than down, and they don’t appear to turn red as you’re approaching the limit of Twitter’s 140 character restriction any more.

[Reply]

I love the updates, especially scheduled ‘tweets’ on linkedin and fb are great; I hope it is only a matter of time until you also manage FB fan pages. Seeing the list feature integrated is another

Sadly though the adding of the FB integration ‘destroyed’ my twitter accounts in hootsuite, I am able to track that because right after adding this, it went “The supplied Twitter profile credentials are not valid. If you have changed your password recently, you may need to update it in HootSuite” and update will not work.

Besides this word of caution I would kindly ask you to have a look into my account or otherwise we will not be able to put the screenshots in the updated version of the twitter book which screenshots are due tomorrow. How was that saying? Never change a running system. Should have listened to that!

[Reply]

Can we post facebook for business pages?

[Reply]

That’s great! Keep up the good work. Hootsuite is by far the best Twitter platform I have used.

[Reply]

Thanks for continuing to add wonderful functionality to your platform. These are tremendous additions!

[Reply]

Brilliant. But, what about Fan Pages? Can we choose between home status stream and Fan Page status streams as the source target? Please advise.

GREAT work, BTW.

Jim

[Reply]

Hey,

I think this has the potential to be really great! However, I’m trying to figure out how to implement it and I’m hitting some serious walls. For instance, Ping is not very user friendly and the easiest way to set it up just posts the same update to everything. Why would I want to do that? Do I have it correct that you must post to Hootsuite, which goes through Ping, which then posts to Facebook? There is some real potential for error here in the settings. Do you have any tips that can help me get this rolling so that I can schedule different posts for multiple Facebook pages? I would really appreciate!

Many, many thanks, I really enjoy using Hootsuite!

-Megan

[Reply]

Fantastic update, especially with the scheduled FB posts. Bravo!

[Reply]

The Facebook integration is a good start. But what I’m looking for is way to schedule postings to the wall of my company’s Facebook page. Any solution for that? Maybe one in the works?

[Reply]

Great updates – thank you. Is there an option for toggling the character count back to counting down (for Twitter) vs. counting up for FB & LI? Thanks.

[Reply]

I love using Hootsuite even more now. While you guys are working on the iphone app would you also work on an ANDROID app, PLEASE!PLEASE!PLEASE!

[Reply]

Cool new features. Hootsuite is definitely the best and most professional Twitter client available. It is great that one can now use Hootsuite to post to one’s FB profile. Are you planning to add this functionality also for Facebook pages?

[Reply]

Great news… I’ve started using Facebook this year and I’ve been using Linkedin since… who knows. I’ll certainly try new features in hootsuite to see up to which point I can integrate all these plaforms while maintaining control of them, because not all contents are to be published simultaneously and within all platforms. Again, great job. Let’s start to tweet a little.

[Reply]

Fantastic! Exactly what I’ve been waiting for. I cannot wait to give it a try. Will you be adding FaceBook fan pages soon? If so, then you would be perfect! Thanks Hootsuite.

[Reply]

Oh, HootSuite, dear sweet Hootsuite. I heart the new integration options! Is it possible to schedule automatic updates on Facebook for those of us who maintain profiles AND pages? Pretty please?

[Reply]

Nothing big to complain about, since most of the updates actually make my life significantly easier, but the character count now counts up instead of down. I liked the countdown better. Thanks for listening, and thanks VERY much for updating. The fb/li functionality is awesome.

-Kevin

[Reply]

Great stuff, Hootsuite. I love the new additions. Thanks for the hard work. I will recommend Hootsuite as much as I can because I think it’s a really cool SM app!

[Reply]

Love the ability to integrate Facebook; however, what would be REALLY helpful and useful is the ability to access/update Fan Pages through Hootsuite. We use Hootsuite to manage our client’s Twitter accounts and we also have their corresponding Facebook Fan Pages. The power to update a Fan Page or schedule a future update would be AMAZING. Thanks

[Reply]

Is there support for Facebook Pages? If yes, how? If not, is it in plans for the future?

[Reply]

Great! Thanks so much! You’ve just minimized the time I have to spend posting status updates at work but maximized my efforts.

[Reply]

Josh :
Is there support for Facebook Pages? If yes, how? If not, is it in plans for the future?

What he said. That’s the only thing Seesmic has that you don’t now.

[Reply]

I second the question/wishlist of Facebook Pages.

[Reply]

I was just going to ask the same thing – how can we link Hootsuite to update a Facebook fan page? Thanks!

[Reply]

I have the same question…that would be really fantastic!!

[Reply]

But can you not update to/from Fan Pages?

[Reply]

Loving the new updates – having Facebook and LinkedIn integration pretty much insures I will be sticking with Hootsuite as my primary social media client. I agree with Josh though – if you could add Facebook Page integration too – wow! That is one thing that keeps me using Seesmic now and again.

Facebook and LinkedIn columns are a tad slow but I will give it time as it might just be the new updates kicking in. Also love Twitter Lists and looking forward to the iPhone App. Thanks for providing such a great app!!

[Reply]

Yes, we always want more! Facebook Pages are the pages I used ping.fm to schedule posts to. Would be great if they were available as a column as well.

Thanks!!

[Reply]

Ditto the question on Facebook Pages. I don’t need to schedule my personal updates, but scheduling my page updates would be hugely appreciated

[Reply]

A few snap comments on LinkedIn implementation:

1. “A added B” as a connection -> Not very useful, as B is just a name and would means nothing unless I know person B, which is unlikely. While it looks the same on LinkedIn site, you can hover on a name and details will show up. A more useful implementation would do something similar to LinkedIn’s status update RSS feed, which would say “A is now a connection to B (Manager at ACME CORP)” I don’t know if the API allows that, but I hope so.

2. “A updated their profile” is again not that useful. In RSS feed, it would show “A updated their profile (Experience)”

3. “A recommends , “” ” I think this is a bug.

4. Avatars are not showing for me. I assume this is a cache problem and will fix itself?

[Reply]

I too wonder about Facebook Pages.

[Reply]

Awesome upgrade – thanks! An iPhone app next?

[Reply]

Loving the new functionality. Nice work. Is there plan to integrate with Facebook Pages? It would be great to be able to update a Page’s status, not just an my own status. (Or did is this functionality already there, and I missed it?)

-Andrew Cohen

[Reply]

Great service, makes sense. Haven’t tried it yet, will be.

[Reply]

I agree with Facebook fan pages. But what about stats for the links with Facebook?

[Reply]

I would also like to know if you will be rolling out this new Facebook feature for Fan Pages too. Being able to schedule Facebook Fan Page updates would be fantastic.

Also, I agree with what one gentleman commented about regarding the character limit counting up and as opposed to down. I liked it better when it counted down, it’s easier to edit that way.

Thank you! I love all the new features. Way to go HootSuite!!

[Reply]

Thanks so much for creating a great platform that makes social media more manageable for all of us. I also appreciate your forward thinking and continuous changes to keep up with the dynamism of the social media arena. It looks like many people have the same question I do. Will you be adding capability to update fan pages in the near future?

[Reply]

Great work guys

Well done!

Having a few speed issues though and keeps telling me to try again later. Starts to get annoying after a while.

But ye GREAT work!!

[Reply]

We use Hoot to send out all our Tweets but Ping.fm to update our blogs. Are there any plans to integrate syndicating Blogs as well as Micro blogs. As we’d really like to operate everything from the same place and Hoot is our prefered tool.

Many Thanks

[Reply]

I love it, guys! You really listen to your users. That’s the mark of a great team.

[Reply]

It would be nice if you could add a feature where we could post into different pages w/in Facebook. I have like 10 different pages I manage, and my profile wall/newsfeed doesn’t link up to these, so this doesn’t really help me. Thanks!

[Reply]

@Nancy
Didn’t read above before posting, ditto what everyone said above

[Reply]

Where do I report problems? I can’t send any Twitters via Hootsuite this morning and can’t see status of clicks on my messages. Thanks.

[Reply]

Lovely idea…unfortunately, got stuck in an endless loop when trying to add Facebook (authorized 4 different aspects, which was fine, then it started me all over again.) Never got a Facebook tab to appear.

[Reply]

Ditto about FB pages. I was stoked when I saw you integrated facebook, but it does me no good until i can schedule updates on the Page rather than the Profile. However, well done nonetheless.

[Reply]

Excellent!!

[Reply]

The scheduled status update function for Facebook – does this work for the Facebook pages one administrates?

[Reply]

This is a great and timely upgrade, Hootsuite, thank you!

Add my voice to being able to access our Facebook Fan Page from Hootsuite, though.

I was grateful to find the PING.FM integration angle to do it, but it was a *special* challenge to set up correctly. If it just worked right off the dashboard, I’d be all over recommending Hootsuite to my other clients.

[Reply]

These updates are great in theory, but I’m having quite a bit of issues with HootSuite yesterday and today. I am getting tabs and columns that don’t load and I can’t get Facebook working (registering with Facebook under settings is causing some strange loop of signing in followed by logging off of Facbeook). I don’t see any status updates on Hootsuite–where can we turn to know you’re working on bugs and when things will be fully functional?

[Reply]

When is this going to be implemented? I tried it but it does not seems to work. Anyways thanks for the great effort

[Reply]

The facebook integreation would be better if you can update the fan page.

[Reply]

When I try to add LinkedIn to my profiles, I get to the login page, click the connect button, and get bounced back to HootSuite without the profiling being added. My login info is correct since I can log into the main LinkedIn page. Any clues?

[Reply]

Ouch! Too much at once…

Trying to add facebook broke my twitter account crediential (which I had to reapply to teh accounts.)

LinkedIN never linked.

[Reply]

We can’t seem to get the ping.fm funcion to work.
No feedback that it doesnt work either.
2 hours in it so far.

[Reply]

Not sure how to “edit” scheduled tweets now. Doesn’t seem to work so have had to delete scheduled tweets and repost. Is there a better way? This used to be simple to do.

[Reply]

This is awesome! Looking forward to testing it right now.

[Reply]

Wonderful! Shame I just made a video about Three Twitter Apps That Rock and now it’s out of date because of the cool new functionality you’ve added to Hootsuite.

[Reply]

This is a must have for any serious internet marketing.
I fell in love with you from the first Hootsuite.
You have my complete heart with this one.

Thanks

[Reply]

Tweetdeck now integrates Facebook pages. I am sure you guys at HootSuite will follow shortly?

ALSO…

Is there ANY way, ANY place (in HootSuite or otherwise) to send @ or DM to everyone on a Twitter list”???

Thanks!

[Reply]

I love it!

[Reply]

Ditto on the feedback regarding Facebook Pages. I too don’t often need to schedule updates to personal facebook profile, but definitely do for my business Fan Page. I already schedule all my business tweets using HootSuite scheduled tweets + it’s been a life saver!

Loving the new updates + *very* much looking forward to the iPhone app! {clapping}
Facebook Fan Page updates + iPhone app will keep me here indefinitely…
Thanks HootSuite!

[Reply]

this is great, but will it connect to facebook fan pages?

[Reply]

Wow! I love Hootsuite EVEN MORE NOW! I also rave about this site but this upgrade is incredible..Definitely want to update my Facebook page too. hee! hee!

[Reply]

I can’t schedule tweets. It keeps defaulting to 12 p.m. when I try to schedule it for the future.

[Reply]

Hootsuite is the BEST! Can’t wait for the iPhone app!!

[Reply]

How about a BlackBerry app? Not everyone uses an iPhone, you know?

[Reply]

@Javier
You can, through Ping.FM

[Reply]

Rob :
Can we post facebook for business pages?

That would be brilliant if we could!

[Reply]

Love the increased functionality! I agree with the masses that the ability to update Facebook Pages using HootSuite would make a great service even better!

[Reply]

Mark J Daniels :

I agree! – I ran into this page while researching that very issue

[Reply]

Wooooow! Hootsuite is greeeeeeeat! love the new facebook and linked features! I am cool with Hootsuite !!!

[Reply]

Yes, need to have my twitter feed into my business facebook fan page. Hurry Hootsuite!!! Happy Thanksgiving!

[Reply]

We use HootSuite to manage multiple client accounts and I am very happy you’ve added in the Twitter list functionality. Same question as above. I want to post to my Facebook Fanpage (and our client’s Fan pages for them), but that doesn’t seem to be an option. Keep us posted. Great job.

[Reply]

FAIL in my firefox for mac browser, I can’t see the word count…it’s broken, which makes hootsuite really rather unusable.

[Reply]

Please add my voice as someone who desperately needs to update my Facebook Fan Pages, not my personal Facebook Account so much. Otherwise, the updates look good.

[Reply]

Excellent update guys, missed you while you were down! The Facebook integration was the only thing I really missed moving from TweetDeck, so I’m really glad to see it in there.

[Reply]

Add us to the list of those wanting to update Facebook fan pages (as opposed to personal accounts). Being able to schedule updates for that would be OUTSTANDING!

[Reply]

Super job! Love these updates! Looking forward to the iPhone app as well and hoping these changes will appear there as well. In a word.. WOOT!!!

[Reply]

great job done.

[Reply]

I love hootsuite, now I just love it more. Great ideas guys N gals.

[Reply]

I think there’s a bug somewhere in the Facebook integration. I was unable to post a Facebook update with a length greater than 140 characters, due to a “Messages must be 140 characters or less” error, although Facebook allows for over 140 characters. It seems to make the reversed char counter fairly pointless.

[Reply]

Congrats on the new features. Hootsuite has now proved to be the best Twitter App ever. Just think you guys still have to work on the speed of the updates. It’s been taking a little too long for me to see them updated. Great job on LinkedIn, too.
Best,
Fabio.

[Reply]

Can I post to a Facebook Page Wall instead of posting to my personal wall from Hootsuite?

[Reply]

I’ll also place a vote for needing to update my Facebook Pages. I have to say I was pretty disappointed to learn that the new FB functionality didn’t include this.

[Reply]

I’ll try it. I tend to forget Linkedin, but this update might help me to remember.

[Reply]

FANTASTIC!!! We can always depend on HootSuite to keep it fresh!!

[Reply]

re: Facebook Pages: I figured out how to push to a Fan Page using a ping.fm connection (works beautifully) but now I want to be able to see the newsfeed/wall for that fan page as a HS column. Please find a way to add this functionality into your Facebook options.

Thanks for the great updates!

Really liking the conversation upgrade as well. smooth!

[Reply]

I one-hundred-and-thirty-second the request for facebook pages.
And please, please, please make a mobile app for Android too.

[Reply]

We like Hootsuite so much we dedicated an entire post to it yesterday. You can check it out here: http://www.verticalmeasures.com/social-media/hootsuite-gets-a-facelift/

It’s the tool of choice for our social media team.

[Reply]

I am so in love with Hootsuite it’s not even funny…..and that was BEFORE these updates. Now I am just ecstatic. I love the new changes and can’t wait for more. You guys are really cornering yourself in the market and I have to think that everyone who uses Tweetdeck will inevitably come your way. I’m able to manage client accounts with Hootsuite far better than any other desktop application lemme tell you. And getting an iPhone app will be stellar!! KUDOS!

[Reply]

Derek Reply:

Are you able to manage multiple client accounts under one master account? or do you have to set up a hootsuite account for each client?

Thank you in advance,

Derek

[Reply]

Dave Olson Reply:
August 4th, 2010 at 11:27 am

Hi Derek, thanks for your note. The answer is: either way depending on your needs. Each individual can have a unique HootSuite account and/or you can add multiple client social accounts to one HootSuite account and then share access to the account(s) granularly with your invited team members. Check the Help Desk for more articles about how to do this (just click the Owl and choose Help).

[Reply]

Great ideas. The creativity is endless.

[Reply]

Have linked my Facebook account but I can not see the photo. Someone knows how to fix it?

[Reply]

i like it

thank you

[Reply]

Hootsuite is by far my fave twitter app and now I’m looking forward to adding by facebook and linkedin accounts… So now, of course, the next asks are are you going to be able to integrate Yammer and Posterous updates?

[Reply]

Great idea. Will save loads of time…much needed. I am loving HootSuite more and more thanks guys, your’e doing a great job. notjustagranny on twitter etc

[Reply]

@Ashley
I’m a new Droid user, too. Ditto the request for a Droid app. I’ve been using hootsuite for some time to manage several Twitter accounts and love it! Please add me to the list of those requesting Fan page updates.

[Reply]

Well done! You are a life saver!

[Reply]

LOVE IT! Now I can get rid of more of those other social media tools I have been using.

[Reply]

OMG you guys ROCK – more and more reasons to love HS!! Thank you!

[Reply]

Great tool. Previously was using another tool. Thought it was great. But little did I know that there is one better tool out there, HootSuite!

Since that switch over, I have never turned back. Thank you HootSuite for all the integration with Facebook & LinkedIn. It makes managing different and multiple social networking accounts easy.

[Reply]

Do you know how I can link hootsuite with a facebook business page instead of my main facebook page? They’re both on the same account

Thanks

[Reply]

I agree with the hundred other posts – love the new features but would love it even more if I could post to my FB Fan/Business account.

[Reply]

Great work i have previously heard about hootsuite but didn’t give it a try but with so many feature and sechdule your tweets it’s amazing. Thanks for sharing with us.

[Reply]

I’m getting hooked guys – if I can see all my stuff on one portal and touch it all as well – then I’m hooked. Thanks for working hard on this.

[Reply]

LOVE that you just added FB Pages today! It works perfectly – thanks!

[Reply]

Please add my voice to the request for Facebook Business / Fan pages. Great to see moving in this direction though! Also, if anyone has a link for an explanation of how to effectively manage Ping.fm – is anyone currently using THAT for Fbook Pages + other management? thx.

[Reply]

Lists is cool. Love Hootsuite. But how do I pull my existing H-suite groups into a list?

[Reply]

This is great – THANKS!!

[Reply]

Please don’t get rid of groups. I use groups to follow people that are not related to my “brand” that I don’t want to have appear in my feeds, etc. Groups are still very useful.

[Reply]

Thank you for your work – it’s really made my job easier!

[Reply]

this just gets better and better. thanks guys for brilliant features, makes life easier and fun. i love everything you do, especially the wake-me up owl

[Reply]

The app of my dreams! Make it available for Android so I can use on my Droid phone and I will be even more enamored.

[Reply]

Hi all, I’m also looking for a way to connect to a Facebook Fanpage to update it? Any new ideas? Love the other updated features though!

Cool set of new features. With respect to Linkedin, can you manage multiple accounts (with related status updates) in a fashion similar to Twitter? We’ve got about 10 Linkedin users under our management that represent an aggregate network of 22M network contacts. Their status updates broadcast across 120 different Linkedin groups and we would love for Hootsuite to handle/schedule the updates in a manner similar to Twitter.

Thanks to Hootsuite we were able to track over a about a 30 day period, 35 tweets/facebook updates created 355 clicks http://diapmedia.com/2010/01/social-media-roi-experiment-tracking-the-clicks/

It is our Social Media tool of choice for our sites and our client sites to manage multiple Social Media accounts.

Nice Job HS!

I am concerned about the word of caution from a reader who wrote about the problem of integrating FB and Twitter which seems to have destroyed his Twitter account.

Has this problem been taken care of?

We are unaware of this problem. Best to submit a help ticket at http://help.hootsuite.com for these kind of situations.

Interesting… how can this help my new album release??

Hi, Dave.

I am trying to build lists in hootsuite. I read this tip “Tip: To drag a user, click and hold on a user thumbnail and move the mouse. Position the user over a list and release the mouse to add them to that list!”, but for some reason when I drag and drop the person isn’t added to the list.

Also, if i were to do a serach of all my followers by a certain subject ex (#GIS), is there a way to drop the results into a list, instead of 1 by 1?

Hi Sarah,

I’ve added this to the Help Desk with a ticket so we can give you a thorough response. thanks!

[Reply]

Yes. This saves time and creates a few more new tools for SEM etc

Hi guys! How can I get a hootsuite account? We own 5 hotels and they all have facebook/twitter/and review sites, so I think that hootsuite would help me save a lot of time each updating. Can someone send me a registration link?

Great to hear … anyone can register for an account at http://HootSuite.com

Is there any chance that Hootsuite will be integrated with MySpace. I think the application would compliment well.

MySpace was integrated in March – just add your account and you are good to go.

Until we found Hootsuite, maintaining our social media was a full time job in itself. With Hootsuite, we have increased our efficiency 10 fold.

We’re working on a Blackberry version but no release date set yet.

[Reply]

You guys seem to always be ahead of the pack before all the other developers catch on. I can’t see there being anymore functionality needing to be built into this awesome tool.

Will there be a standalone version possibly?

There are a few standalone-ish version available now including Prism, Chrome and Fluid versions to allow you to run HootSuite as an app rather than in browser. Find these at http://hootsuite.com/apps

Just sent this to a colleague, convincing him to use Hootsuite over Tweetdeck like we use to.
