Tweeting Blog Posts

In the sort of horrible electronic incest deservedly lampooned in Viz some years ago, twitterfeed allows posts blogged here to make an appearance on twitter.

Once you've signed in, supply your twitter credentials, confirm you own a blog, supply the RSS feed for it, and Bobs your platitude at a frequency of anything as high as hourly. More prolific bloggers requiring a higher update frequency should perhaps consider getting a life.

The only issue I can see with this is that it's also possible to tweet directly to a blog. Exactly what sort of internet-crushing feedback loop this sets up remains to be seen.
