You a twitter addict?  

A self-proclaimed “microblogger” maybe?

Here are the top 3 Twitter tools I have/do use in order to integrate Wordpress and Twitter.  Why only three? Well, with so many plugins out there doing the same thing I focused on the “best of the best”.  I could have simply listed a number to Twitter/Wordpress plugins but what good would that do for you?

So, here we go..

Twitter Tools

This plugin alerts Twitter every time you update your Wordpress blog.  It’s a great tool if you only use Twitter for your microblogging.  If you use other networks I would suggest you look at the PingPressFM plugin.

TwitThis

Nice little plugin that allows your readers to create a Tweet of your posts and sends it off to their contact list.  Even takes care of creating the shorter URL.

Twitt-Twoo

An Ajax based plugin (Yay!  No page reloading) that shows your latest Twitter status right in your blog’s sidebar.  It’s nice to see someone developing in AJAX when it comes to Wordpress.

Please let me know if there are other Twitter related plugins I should be looking at… I’m always open to new things that could improve the blog.
