By integrating, I mean to say about posting your blog topics and links to twitter status. In other words, it’s about publishing your wordpress articles as tweets in twitter.
I don’t mean the entire article content coz twitter only allows 140 chars max :) I just mean publishing your article title and link to twitter.
Here is an awesome wordpress plugin which lets you post your wordpress article to your twitter status automatically. It’s called WP to Twitter.
It has very good options to be selected. You can tweet whenever your post is published. Or, even when your post is being edited. You can also tweet whenever your wp pages are published or edited.
The prominent feature I like about this plugin is that it lets you post your wordpress article’s content as tweet by setting character limit. Moreover, it publishes your wp article tags as hashtags in twitter.
The URL Shortener is always there. You can do with Cli.gs, Bit.ly or use wordpress as url shortener.
This plugin is very beneficial and is a must if you are a twitter user or a twitter fan lik e me :)
Keep blogging and keep tweeting…
Cheers,

Here’s my attempt on how to get follower count in twitter using PHP.
