Twitter Tools is dead…

…long live Twitme.

I used to use Twitter Tools to notify Twitter when I posted to this here blog, but it just packed in working one day. I fiddled with it, uninstalled and reinstalled, and next time I posted it worked. This week it packed in again. So fuck it. From reading forum posts and FAQs I’m sure it works fine for the developer, and for x other people, but that just doesn’t wash when you’re one of the people for whom the product fails, so bugger it.

Twitme to the rescue – if you’re having similar problems with Twitter Tools, you can find Twitme in the WordPress plugins search page, though be sure to uninstall TT first if you’re going to switch – they don’t play together.

And if you’re using TT and it’s working fine, great! Stick with it! For me, it broke, so I replaced it. YMMV.

–c.

EDIT: Scratch that, Twitme didn’t work either. Does anyone know of a reliable Blog->Twitter WordPress plugin, or am I just running up against Twitter’s innate flakiness here?
