Share your content directly on Facebook or Twitter

One of the great tools built-in to the Weekend Workshops website is the ability to share content of your interests and passions with other social platforms across the internet like Facebook or Twitter. If you are a member of Weekend Workshops you can connect to your Facebook or Twitter account and can share content - like a photo, video, event, blog, a discussion or post your status updates to Facebook and or Twitter directly from Weekend Workshops.

The first time that you post to your Facebook account, you will be asked to connect to your Facebook account. Although your Facebook account information is required to connect to Facebook, it will not appear anywhere on Weekend Workshops.

After entering in your Facebook username and password, Facebook will ask if you want to allow Weekend Workshops to publish your content without prompting you. Click on the Allow Publishing button to continue.

Post your status update to Facebook

To post a status update from your profile page to Facebook, check the box next to the Facebook icon below the Status Update bar. Click Update
to post your status.

If you would like to connect to a different Facebook account, head over to My Settings page by clicking on the Settings link and then clicking on the Connections link. Click on the "Connect as a different user" link and you will be signed out of your current Facebook account.

You may also want to check out the Weekend Workshop Facebook Page as I believe all the workshops are also published there as well.
