I have implemented this and look forward to 'diligently' sending out tweets while I 'sit back' and create products. I found this via the equally good Zazzle University video on the same topic.

They were formatted correctly, how long does it take for them to start showing on Twitter? I submitted feeds too and have not seen them show up on Twitter.

Yes, I can think of several ways of selectively posting products. First, you can play with the feed url so that you're only selecting for the products you want to see. The details of using feeds are in the PDF linked from http://www.zazzle.com/sell/tools/feeds . But two quick examples are to use the "cg" parameter to limit yourself to a particular gallery product line, or the "qs" parameter to provide a search term. For example: http://feed.zazzle.com/hikingviking/feed?ft=gb&cg=196148361796831721 will pull products from my "Bring Back Planet Pluto" product line, or http://feed.zazzle.com/hikingviking/feed?ft=gb&qs=merchbooth pulls products I have tagged with "merchbooth" to show up in the MySpace merchbooth widget Second, you can just Twitter manually using the "share it" link on the product page of the product you want to Twitter. Finally, you can always selectively delete tweets on twitter.com that you may not want :). Hope this helps... Hi, Jaejean … Yes, I can think of several ways of selectively posting products.

Thank you Jan! Do you know if there is a way to selectively post products? e.g. not to have all products posted? This is a really great informative post! Thank you Jan!
