Tweet tweet

March16

I’m playing around with integrating my Twitter stream and my blog. Technically, this plugin should create a daily digest of my tweets and post it here on the blog. It should also take blog posts and Twitter them. Hopefully it doesn’t get caught up in an endless loop.

For those wondering, Twitter is sort of like a microblog that allows easy, small updates that you can access from several sources. It’s a lot faster and easier than posting a blog entry, although you only have a very limited amount of space to say anything, so in-depth stuff is better on an actual blog.

I’ve ranted in the comments of others’ blogs, but I believe this is the first time I’ve directly brought it up in a blog post. So please, please, please don’t cross-post tweets to your blog.
