Duplicates with twitter and brightkite
So I sent out my first ping and got the duplicate on twitter from brightkite. Here is my question. I want Brightkite to still update twiiter with pic and location updates but I would like to use ping.fm for microblog updates on them both. As far as I can tell I only have these options.
1. Turn off Brightkite Twitter connection and loose ability to have photo and location updates sending to Twitter.
2. Turn off Brightkite updates on ping.fm and be able to microblog to twitter but not brightkite at same time. But have ablity to do photo and location updates from Bkite going over to Twitter.
Hope this makes sense! I'm trying to to figure this one out!
Thanx in advance for any help.

Inappropriate?You can go into the settings on Brightkite and uncheck "When I post a note," but leave "When I post a photo" checked.
Next, enable both brightkite and twitter within ping.fm. This way, when you post from Ping.fm it will repost a note on brightkite and on twitter, but brightkite won't relay it over to twitter causing an echo.
Then whenever you want to post a photo, just do it through brightkite and it will relay the photo to twitter.
I hope that's not too confusing, but it's what I did, and it works fine!

Yup that pretty much answers it. Somehow last night I thought of that option and then talked myself out of it LOL. Overthinking!
