As I don’t really use twitter apart to microblog but rather as an Instatn Messaging tool (why those people don’t use IRC or Jabber remains a mistery to me wheel.reinvent :( )
I figured I could abuse it to announce posts on my blog, lots of people seem to be doing this so there had to be an easy way to auto publish them ..
The wonderful Drupal community seemed to have the same idea and therefore created the Twitter Module
A big fat warning however when you start using it.
The default values the module proposes for a tweet is :
New post: !title (!url)
Which results in something tinyurl doesn’t really translate well..
(As you can see in this tweet)
So remove the brackets , or have some broken links to deal with :)
