Integrating Twitter and WordPress

I recently finished integrating some nice Twitter functionality to this blog. You’ll notice that you can now see my Twitter updates at the bottom of the blog. Also, new blog posts will show up in my Twitter feed (hopefully at least). This was actually really simple to set up thanks to a couple of plugins:

To grab my latest twitter posts and display them on this blog I’m using: Twitter Tools

And to update Twitter when I write new posts I’m using: Twitter Updater

Twitter tools seems to have the ability to update Twitter on posting to the blog, but I decided to use Twitter Updater instead since it seems a bit more specialized for this task (and it’ll use tinyurl to shorten URLs).
