creative web design and development studio

While experimenting emailing options with tarpipe I have created this workflow that would distribute an image attachment to Facebook, TwitPic and Flickr at the same time and create announcements on Tumblr, Twitter and Identica.

How it works?

• First we create and email with an image attached. Subject field acting as image title, message body contains our tags.
• It gets sent to a specific address that tarpipe is given to us at the time of creating this workflow.
• When sent, tarpipe passes the image to Facebook, TwitPic and Flickr. It creates photo caption for Facebook and title for Flickr and keywords are used as tags for Flickras well.
• Later on tarpipe connector "TextFormatter" joins picture URL and passes to Tumblr which takes its title from the email subject and passes to URL shortener.
• Once the URL is shortened it gets announced on Twitter and Identica for everyone to see.

Now it's time to go out and take some pictures!
