So, @QwaiderPlanet, tool is officially in Beta, so you can follow it. With a lot of provisions in place to prevent flooding, handle faults, etc. It's completely automated and is doing a pretty good and stable job so far.

Under the hood, QwaiderTweets (The application), keeps track of all the links it generates on Twitter, and counts the exclusive hits (value that it adds) which is pretty interesting. I might create a specialized analytics page to show this soon (Vote?)

But the real value is for Qwaider Planet blogs that don't have a fancy Wordpress plug-in to re-tweet their posts, these folks are getting the added boost for free. A +1 for Qwaider Planet as a community aggregator.

I also added Link shortening as a "first class citizen", so all links look the same way, using the same API and land at the end of the tweet (like?) truncating the title of the posts (which I assure you was no easy arrangement, since some like'em really really long)

Speaking of developments, Qwaider Planet now sports a fancy article-scrubber that works under the hood. You won't feel the difference but posts from Mayyasi and Mohammad Omar (and others) no longer have garbled markup as excerpt. (I guess, I was never able to convince them Not to paste from Word)

You might also notice that the little site icons are now a little better looking, with less "The site preview is not available". If you get one of these, try again in a few minutes. It should be back to normal.

And there you have it boys and girls, Automatic TwitterUpdates with analytics (with web interface coming soon?), article markup scrubbing, and visual enhancements. To wrap up the latest developments on 9.9.09.
