If you have a WordPress blog and use Twitter, you need a way to publish your blog posts to your timeline.
The Twitter Tools plugin lets you tweet a link to any Blog Post. You can choose a custom prefix for your tweets (the standard one is “New Blog Post”).
By default, you have to choose to tweet your post (there’s a radio button). A setting reverses the default, i.e., you have to choose not to tweet.
The Twitter Tools bit.ly extension helps, too. It shorten the URLs of the blog posts your tweets are sharing. This has two great Social Media advantages: it leaves room for comments when people retweet you, and bit.ly gathers statistics on the number of clicks your links get, which helps you learn what links work best for your readers.
