Question

You Tube Share Buttons

Jul 8, 2011 6:34PM PDT

Hello! How are you?

I was wondering if it's possible to share a video from You Tube to all of the social media options at once, instead of having to share to each social media option individually by pressing the button for each one, one at a time (I used about six or seven of them)?

Thank you--. RSVP, please!

Why it is the way it is!

Thankfully such is not possible today (no app for that.) The reason why is it could help spammers.

If it's that important, click it 7 times.

Thanks--. Funny reply. A little bit obnoxious, though--. But that's okay. I can be the same way--.

Best,

Sorry but

I gave you the short reply and you felt bad about it.

Yes you could hire some programmer for that feature but I made a bad assumption that you didn't want to know that.

Hope that clears it up for you.

Your "Assumption."
Sep 9, 2011 8:30AM PDT

Hope that "clears it up for me?" Which "it" are you referring to? Because really I was only "unclear" about one thing, and that was whether or not there was some way to share my You Tube videos on all the social media sites at once. Making the "bad assumption" that I "didn't want to know" about hiring "some programmer" was really not a bad assumption, because I neither wanted to nor didn't "want to know" about hiring a programmer--so the assumption is neither good nor bad, because I had not even been thinking, in the first place, about "hiring" a "programmer." Thus, the assumption is, in effect, moot--I.e., a non sequitur...and consequently, in terms of logic, absurd (i.e., lacking logic, reason, sense, or meaningful relevance--). Happy

Again I apologize.

When there is no app for that, we create such a thing or have it made for us.

Once in awhile a member gets upset that some app they want can't be found and another member in their way tells them to go make that app or have it made.

Hope that's clearer.
