In FMS terms (I'm not really familiar with Freetalk), I would have the twitterclone application automatically send links to each post to FMS boards according to the hashtags it carries. That is, if I post a clonetweet with the hashtags #foo and #bar, then links to that clonetweet would be automatically posted to the FMS boards twitterclone.hashtag.foo and twitterclone.hashtag.bar. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
