Myspace has finally added a long overdue feature — syncing Twitter posts to your Myspace status. Syndicating your content across multiple channels quickly and efficiently is an important part of an efficient new media strategy.
Here’s how to set up Twitter and MySpace syncing.
1. Go to the Myspace sync page and click on the Sync Now button
2. Under Sync to Other Services you will see Twitter listed (the only option as of writing this article). Click on Get Synced.
3. You’ll be asked by Twitter whether you want to grant permission to Myspace. Click Allow.
4. Select the permissions that you want to allow. I opted to only allow Twitter to post to Myspace and not vice-versa.

I’m not sure about that. Never tried it. I imagine you could have your Twitter account show up in the status of more than one MySpace profile. Just follow the instructions above for each account.

Do you have to have the same email as your Myspace to link your Twitter?
Example: My email for Myspace is different than my email to Twitter, can I still sync them?

Aly,
I’m not sure about that. You’d just have to try and see.
