    1 of 1 2 of 1

      Users of MySpace in the U.S. now have the option to automatically post their status updates on Twitter—and vice versa.

      This beta feature of MySpace will be rolled out worldwide, according to a blog post today (September 21) by Sharon Nguyen, the social-networking site’s senior product manager.

      Nguyen writes that the feature includes:

      · Status updates synced from MySpace to Twitter and vice versa

      · Updates originating from MySpace will be noted as such on Twitter and vice versa

      · Status syndication can be enabled for one-way or two-way

      · When updates post to Twitter, readers have a link back to MySpace to make commenting easy

      · Enables on-the-go status syncing (for Twitter and MySpace Mobile – WAP and apps)

      · Open authentication technology (OAuth) protects account credentials and data shared between sites

      The post doesn’t say when syncing will be available to Canadian users.
