Sign in with Twitter

Link Infinity is now a Twitter app. Not only can you sign in with Twitter, a set of Twitter tools is available to those who do. Link Infinity is not exclusively Twitter. A traditional account, directly with Link Infinity, will always remain an option.

Signing in with Twitter for the first time, you are presented with decision whether or not to "Allow" the Link Infinity application. Selecting "Allow" permits Link Infinity and Twitter to communicate without disclosing your password. Should you ever desire to terminate authority, either revoke permission from your Twitter account or delete your Link Infinity account.

Although the set of Twitter tools is currently limited, many new tools are currently under development. The list will quickly expand. Your comments and suggestions are welcome. All Link Infinity features are free and will remain free. What tools in other apps do you use and appreciate most?

m for Mobile - Link Infinity goes mobile

From the browser on your cell phone, you can access your Link Infinity account by going to: m.linkinfinity.com or mobile.linkinfinity.com

We recommend m.linkinfinity.com because there are fewer characters to type. This mobile version is more compact and a great way to link to your own social media bookmarks as well as those of your contacts. Some features are omitted but for good reason. Tasks like profile editing is easiest in a full-sized browser. Every aspect of the mobile version is designed for optimal convenience.

Log in once and remain logged in. Bookmark m.linkinfinity.com as a favorite site in your phone's browser and open to display your real-time list of social media links.
