twittering from facebook?

i'm not sure how that works :( i just went to the twitter app in facebook & saw no way to twitter from there? i have twitter synced to facebook & my posts go up from twitter to facebook, but exactly how do i post to twitter from facebook? ps: i don't understand how to post questions on twitter! it keeps asking for me to create new personas? & says my reg login isinvalid

Alright, after you add the Twitter application to your Facebook account, go to your "Applications" sidebar on the left and click on the link which says "Twitter" (or go here: http://apps.facebook.com/twitter/). From there, you will see a near-replica of the Twitter home page where you can update what you're doing in the box on top and see your friend's updates. Hope this helps.

thank you jon. that was perfect. i figured it out with your directions

Not a problem, buffalosparrow. Glad I could be of assistance to you.

is there a way to update twitter directly from your status field or from you profile page?

I tried to add Twitter from Facebook but when I try to use it I just get some sort of API Command page (see below). Then, in order to report the bug I had to create yet another login. Poor.

On the Twitter Status blog, Twitter says there's a problem with the Facebook application.

Here's the relevant excerpt

Facebook app: currently broken for many users, we need to rework some of the core functionality of the app to bring it back in a stable way.

Some people in other threads say they're using the TwitterSync Facebook app instead. But I've not tried it, so I don't know first-hand if it works.

I've added the twitter aps to my facebook account but can't seem to log into my twitter account from facebook? Is anyone else having this problem?
