Tech Note: New Tweet Button
LGF • Views: 4,181
Twitter recently launched a new Tweet Button feature, and I’m trying it out today at LGF. As you can see, it includes a count of the number of times the link to the article has been posted at Twitter.
I’m letting you know this because I need to test what happens when I post a new article; will the Twitter API automatically shorten the article’s URL with Twitter’s t.co service?
UPDATE at 10/9/10 5:48:32 pm:
Well, Twitter is apparently going to start auto-shortening links inside API-posted tweets any day now, but they’re not doing it yet.
