Just uploaded version 0.1 of a Ruby on Rails plugin "simple_twitter_post" to github:
* http://github.com/stephan-buckmaster/simple_twitter_post Makes it easy to update the twitter status of a configurable account with this interface: p = SimpleTwitterPost::Base.new p.post("Welcome our new member ':user_name'. Profile is at :url", :user_name => user.name, :url => user.url) Result: Natural version of this message appears in the Twitter time line. Notes: * The :url value is passed through tinyurl.com * If values of :user_name (or other keys) cause the message to exceed the 140 limit, they are truncated. The URL is not truncated, if possible. More in the README file, http://github.com/stephan-buckmaster/simple_twitter_post Uses Basic Authentication at the moment. Twitter says this will be discontinued in a few weeks (http://dev.twitter.com/pages/oauth_faq) This version is for feedback on the interface, see above. Incorporating one of the twitter-gems for OAUTH to come.
