Wayne,
Good stuff, I am working with our streaming provider to see how we can pull
this off, I just taught it would be a great idea for anyone who's tweeting
their playlist.
Much Appreciated.
Blessings

You could do this without core changes if you used one of the existing cart/cut
fields.
I'm not sure about everyone else but we don't use every field that
Riv offers. For example a quick skim down the list and we have
the following fields unused:
CARTS:
LABEL (64 chars)
CLIENT (64)
AGENCY (64)
USER_DEFINED(255)
NOTES (Text aka a lot of writing)
You could write an RLM to post to the twitter API and send any of
the fields you're not using. To keep people sane it might be
better to use NOTES in a structured way.
E.g. Notes could contain any notes but importantly the first or
last line would be:
@michaeljackson
You could then parse this out in the now and next for use to post
to twitter.
From memory, I'm not sure if notes are passed via Now/Next so it
might not be this trivial without resorting to User Defined or
something else.

Thank you Cowboy I really appreciate your advice, however I have been in
professional broadcasting for almost 30 years now working with several
professional automation systems. My suggest is not to change Rivendell into an
internet thingy, but even Terrestrial radio broadcasting companies are moving
more and more towards internet broadcasting everyday, my idea is not about
improving internet radio stations, but rather all broadcaster using Rivendell
on all levels presence over the internet as well. I look forward to hearing
some more suggestions.
