    I'm joking with you. Not everybody will see a use for it.

    But out of interest to give you an example of how popular it becoming. The Pirate bay court trial started on the 16th February. And their using Twitter as the main source of coverage about the trial.

    Read this article on my site to best explain: http://www.mrgtb.com/february/the-pi...n-twitter.html

    It will also explain how you can use TAGS on Twitter

      vbtwitter - http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showt...hreadid=204694


      Description

      This modification adds basic Twitter integration to vBulletin. Once a user defines their Twitter username & password within their vB Options (User CP -> Edit Options), the Tweet This X links will appear.

      It automatically adds a tweet to their account with the default text of "Check this out! " (which can be edited editing the "twitter_checkout" phrase) and uses your forum URL with either tp or tt.php as the link. These redirect to the thread / post that was tweeted.

          Followers come and go, one minute they add you, the next they remove their subscription from you.

          Tomorrow you might only have 5-6 followers

                        Twitter has been a good source for traffic for me, much better by far than all the other major social networking sites out there. I now have a "Twitter WordPress plug-in" that automatically sends all my new posts, and updated posts on my WP Blog to my twitter account.

                        It's a great plug-in for WordPress, works with the latest 2.7.1 version, and it very simple to use. The best is though, you never have to manually submit your new and edited posts yourself again using it.

                        Check it out here: http://newwebmasters.net/wordpress-twitterbot/
