Wordpress Cross Posting Using Ping.fm

Ping.fm
The aim is to automatically post/cross post to around 40 different social networking sites, microblogging and community sites every time you publish a post on your wordpress blog.
You will be needing 2 things:
1- ping.fm account (Free) : This is the service that will distribute your post to different websites
2-Shorten2Ping Plugin : It is the wordpress plugin that you can install from your wordpress back office that will notify the Title, Post Tile and the Link of the new post you just published to Ping.fm
So how do you do crosspost wordpress using ping.fm ?
After you have activated shorten2ping plugin go to its settings section and paste your Ping.fm API key. Select the notification to be sent to ping.fm
Important: Ping.fm do not accept notifications greater then 200 words. The notification is sent to ping.fm in the following format:
[Tittle] [Post Title]- Link
So if you have long domain names and use long post Permalink you need to use a URL shortner service. which is already included in the plugin. Just create an account on any of the listed URL shortner and fill up the API key for it as well.
Great, your blog is ready to send notifications to Ping.fm, now login to ping.fm account and select the social/blogging/microblogging site you have account with and connect it to your ping.fm account (explained in detail in ping.fm help section)
