10 Best Twitter Tools for Wordpress Blogs is very dificult for me
Great links, thanks a lot…I’ll probably be implementing some of them.
Great list. I use of Twitter Feed often and it’s very handy.
Thanks
Unfortunately Twitt-Twoo works only with PHP5 – I hope there will be a workaround soon…
There is a good work around for the problem, in fact it totally fixes it. Run PHP5. PHP4 is EOL’d and no longer supported.
Nice tools ..
Thank you and wishing you more creativity ..
What is twitter?

If you have a WP blog and need some timely, relevant content, my new tool Twitterdoodle can automatically add posts to your blog based on twitter keyword/keyword phrase searches.
Here is my webpage that explains the plugin in detail:

this is definitely helpful. i cant see using all these at once, but a couple together will bee a nice value
Great, everything I needed is here!!
Does anyone know how to pull in a tweet feed from a tweet feed search, for example, I would like to show all the tweets within a 1 mile radius from zip code 50309. I can easily do this on twitters website but haven’t found a plug in to get this information into my sidebar nicely.
Great list!
dont forget http://www.tweeterized.com
I notice you are not using any …
Thanks, couldn’t find the right one untill this post :)
I’m a big fan of TwitterTools and use it on a number of my blogs. Always helps bring traffic in too.

Interesting list. Hadn’t heard of TwitThis; it’s a bit like Tweet This which I created, except it uses JavaScript, whereas my plugin allows your readers to share your posts on Twitter with a TinyURL (or is.gd, Th8.us, etc.) created and stored in your WP database.
I was disappointed that most of the Twitter plugins are for displaying your tweets rather than facilitating the sharing of your content by others, which was the reason for Tweet This.
I shall have to give these a try. Seems useful.
thanks for the list.. i’ll check em one by one..
Thanks for the Twitter info. I’ll be checking them all out and seeing what works best for me
I made a live twitter feed/updater that uses monitter/ajax to display the latest tweets

Thanks for the twitter plugin links. Just what I need.
