Feeding your RSS to Twitter

Robin is asking whether "auto-feeding links to twitter spammy?"

I immediately tweeted him saying spammy. I'm going to have to qualify that yes by saying it depends on how I follow you. If I'm getting your tweets by SMS I definitely consider shoveling links from your blog or delicious stream annoying. If I'm only following you on the web, then I don't really mind since it's not that intrusive.

So the implication of auto-feeding links is not necessarily me not following you but rather not receiving your tweets via SMS.

Of course, if I really were interested in your blog-posts I'd be subscribed to your blog via RSS anyway....

force-feeding

Think about it as force-feeding and that is why people "like me :)" use it... knowing that my followers will have to sacrifice few spam-tweets to stay as my follower.

And plus this method helps to grab attention of other twitter public users.

drupal?

Alrighty... you win.. I admit it.

Now move back to wordpress 2.5 and make your life easier.

Note: Homepage field on comment section requires me to add "http://" protocol to post a comment..... which sucks.
