Networking Now

I am currently scouring for the right API to make posts twitterable (by choice, not by automation)

As long as it is by choice I think it would really be good for the forum. I also think it needs to be clearly stated that posts can be tweeted.

Yes I wouldn't want it being automatic, sometimes things get off topic and are conversations, not want I would like tweeting as no real benefit to people on twitter.

By choice - Yep, a good idea and may bring in a few more members.

Definitely a good idea, though I would say that the "power to tweet" shouldn't be in public hands - stops people lobbing in a quick post as a newcomer and then firing it out to twitter just to get attention to a quick bit of spam :)

and when you find it, let me know!!! :D

Haha I will buddy, think yours is VB not phpBB though isn't it?

If your are able to access the forums core PHP page script this solution here may be worth considering: (And it's FREE)

TweetMeMe Button

I think this would be a great idea, it would certainly bring in some more useful members.

That's exactly what we want, but that's for a blog Steve, unless you think a bit of php is the same as another piece of php, if its possible then that is perfect!
