In FMS terms (I'm not really familiar with Freetalk), I would have the
twitterclone application automatically send links to each post to FMS
boards according to the hashtags it carries.

That is, if I post a clonetweet with the hashtags #foo and #bar, then
links to that clonetweet would be automatically posted to the FMS boards
twitterclone.hashtag.foo and twitterclone.hashtag.bar.
