Brent Baltzer (ID: 0000004957f4d769) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 11/12/2019 There is an annoying bug with the chrome extension: the link will not automatically shorten when you have link shortening enabled. As a workaround you have to choose a category then cut/paste the link to force it to shorten. If they fix this it's a 5 star extension in my book.

Gregory Lynn (ID: 00000046eff7ef34) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/02/2018 I just gave it a test drive and it works *exactly* as I would want it to. You can post to any social account in any category, post the same page to multiple accounts with customized messages for each, and it's got the same ability to post at a specific time or establish an expiration date or expiration by number of posts. Bottom line, it's going to make my life easier.

Christopher Maselli (ID: 000000ccdac4d4f6) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 07/02/2018 SOOO helpful for SocialBee users. I can now post an article I read to ALL my social channels with a few clicks. This allows me to get rid of Pocket and Crowdfire--so nice to simplify!
