Ping.FM Rating: 
More and more people are participating on multiple social networks. The challenge of updating your status has become time consuming and cumbersome when you are wanting your status updates to go to Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, hi5, Pownce, bebo, Blogger, Jaiku, Myspace, Live Journal, etc.
We have discovered a nice service that actually allows you to quickly do status updates to 1 or a long list of multiple social networks: Ping.FM You can quickly add updates to 11 social networks at this time. You can also publish these status update via your mobile device or iPhone, email, Gtalk, AIM, etc.
You can also send update to all your other social networks from directly within a nice facebook application.
Ping.FM is super simple to use, has a very clean user interface and is very self explanatory. It took us about 5 minutes to set up all the services that we wanted to publish to. The product is currently in beta. We have been testing the service and have found it to be fairly reliable for a product that is not yet fully public.
So if going to multiple services to update your status has become a pain, try Ping.FM as it has proven to be a real time saver. The service is the bests “StatusCaster” that we have seen to date.
Bonus to our readers: If you want into the beta service use the beta code: pingfriends
Ping.FM Allows you to broadcast your status updates to multiple social networks

OH man! thanks for posting this. Before I had all my status updates bookmarked in one firefox folder where i’d do a “open in tabs.” But now i can just do them all with one IM in adium. ROCK!
