State of Friends+Me, November 2015
 
I’ve been busy lately fixing and implementing new features to help you to publish in more comfort. A lot of bugs fixed, existing features improved and new features introduced.
 
I can tell you already that I am about to release a one more new BIG feature this week. Hint: pin ;)
 
Thanks to amazing work of Ian Anderson Gray we have new articles to help everyone to get more value from Friends+Me:

http://blog.friendsplus.me/2015/11/how-to-use-friends-plus-me-in-your-team.html
 
OK, here’s the promised overview.
 
Twitter
* youtube links are no longer shared in shortened version
* the last word of shortened status is replaced entirely with … to avoid unfortunate tweet truncations
 
Google+
* the hashtag is no longer automatically appended to Google+ posts
* original Google+ reshare operation is used for Google+ posts reshared with the Friends+Me extension from the Google+ web site
 
Publishing
* share dialog allows selective publishing to Google+ circles, communities and collections
* it’s possible to upload and replace photo of attached link with photo of your own
 
UX
* introduced new HelpScout Beacon help and feedback system
* minor application redesigns like menu and share dialog
 
Payments
* subscribe and pay with your Coinbase.com account and pay for your subscription with Bitcoins
 
Enjoy ;)

    Thanks for the change for the share extension. I had stopped using the plugin's share because it was confusing me. I was thinking it was like the original one--just a better way of sharing. But it had changed to be a way to schedule and select what to share to, which I really didn't care about--the automatic rules were fine. I'll give it a try again.

    If I understand you correctly about Google+ reshares, that would be helpful. 

    I need to experiment and figure out what this means: "it’s possible to upload and replace photo of attached link with photo of your own"

    I just tested Google+ reshares using the extension. A small touch, but very nice.

Another available option is to export all posts published to profile, pages, collections, and communities to JSON file, including all comments ! Transform exported JSON data can into imports for other services, or you can use JSON export as a full generic backup of your posts. The free version of the application enables you to export up to 3000 posts. You can buy a license key to get unlimited experience. I would love to know your opinion, suggestions or requests. Thank you!

Warning: Sharing That Image Could Get You Banned or Blacklisted

Warning: Sharing That Image Could Get You Banned or Blacklisted Most people have no idea that the way in which they are sharing images on #SocialMedia  or on their blogs could actually get them banned, blacklisted, or worse! In this next part of my Sharing Images Online series I take on the heavy task of explaining the legal side of sharing images in a simple way that everyone can understand.  Read the full post here:  http://dustn.tv/sharing-images-responsibly/ It basically boils down to this - you either have explicit written consent to use an image, or you don't. And if you use someone's copyrighted image because you just so happened to find it online you risk having your social media account deleted/banned or your website blacklisted! Let's all make the internet a better place for creators and curators alike and stop sharing images recklessly, and stop supporting those who knowingly (or unknowingly) do as well .  In the full post I tried to keep it as dead simple as
