IndieWeb POSSE

POSSE = Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere

http://indiewebcamp.com/POSSE

Tantek.com as of 2010-01-011 (2010-01-26 Twitter syndication started2 and caught up3[4]). Tantek Çelik implemented POSSE in Falcon on tantek.com.
all self-hosted posts (notes, articles, etc.) are openly PuSH+Atom real-time syndicated with a PubsubHubbub hub to Google Buzz, StatusNet, etc.
notes (and article titles) are snowflake copied by the personal site server to Twitter with permashortlink citation links/references (see Whistle for details) back to the original. Copies of notes to Twitter are also automatically recopied from there to Facebook.

Waterpigs.co.uk as of 2012-03-12. Barnaby Walters implemented POSSE over at waterpigs.co.uk
as of 2012-09-25 all collections (notes, articles, activity) are PuSH-subscribable feeds.

User:Sandeep.io First post POSSE'd on 05-Nov-2012. I primarily syndicate to Twitter using a very lo-fi solution of adding silo (Facebook, Twiiter, Google+) provided share links to each post that I can manually click to prefill content, edit and post. I've avoided API integration because of the extensive experience I've had using Facebook API and dealing with it's random changes. "Integration" has high costs sometimes so I keep it as simple as possible.

werd.io as of 2013-05-31 [9]. Ben Werdmuller implemented POSSE in his idno platform via plugins. New content has an associated Activity Streams object type; POSSE plugins listen for post events associated with those object types and syndicate appropriately.
Notes and articles are syndicated to Twitter and Facebook
Images are syndicated to Facebook, Flickr and Twitter
Places are syndicated to Foursquare
More plugins are very easily possible; the Foursquare plugin took about an hour to build.

User:Hupili.net implements a partial POSSE with the following setups:
SNSAPI is a lightweight middleware to unify the data structure and interfaces of different social networking services. It gives the scripting flexibility for developer users to manipulate social silos.
SNSRouter is a web UI built upon SNSAPI where one can read an aggregated timeline from different sites, mass forward messages, and update statuses on all channels.
Part of my daily usage is to go to my running SNSRouter, read messages and update statuses on it. The new status is written to the RSS feeds, http://hupili.net/feeds/all.xml , and other silos. ( This feed is indeed a mix of POSSE PESOS )
As is said in one of the description paragraph above, this model is not truly POSSE. One can not (hardly) distinguish original/ syndicated status. I'm planning to put a page with permlink on my site upon each status update and then use SNSAPI to syndicate to other silos.
