Tuesday August 12, 2008 using twitter to shareSome colleagues use twitter to notify their correspondents of their blogs. I have discovered 'twitthis' as a remote javascript and embedded it into this article. Actually it was pointed out in an article in the Guardian which suggest maybe twitter is losing its edgyness. I have changed the picture, to make it a better fit on the article affinity line, as a companion to technorati, digg, slashdot and delicious. twit this: You might recognise this picture better.
You need to be logged into twitter for this to work, maybe through the script. I have run one test and this article is part of the second test. If this works I'll add it to the 'share this' line, and let you know how it works. It advertises itself at http://twitthis.com/. I shall probably not add this to the 'share this' line; the script points at the blog, not the article, so I shall put this in the sidebar sometime. Please let me know if you find the lag as it executes the script unacceptable. tags: technology twitter sharethis blog html web

the addthis.com widget allows you to share via twitter too. I use it because it adds the social networks as they come online - you don't have to maintain your own set of icons and links. Also, it posts the article URL, not just the blog.
