Great list of plugins! I am looking forward to the next version of WordPress and next version of Thesis as I believe both will do a lot to integrate Twitter into their products.

Thanks for mentioning my Twitter article in there.

Taking the Social Media plunge, trying out the Tweets and the FaceBook and the Blogs. Seems alot of folks have their fav. Seems more effective to manage each to most effectively reach out to different publics. Lots to learn…

@ Andy – thanks on the formatting tip. Trying it out shortly. I would love to see the official WP builds start to incorporate more Twitter (or in general, microblogging) support. We’ll see.

@ Joe – thanks on the theme comment. I’m still learning how to use Thesis given it’s so different than a base WP theme, but at a minimum I can play with colors. :)

@ Elizabeth – I hadn’t see Twitterfeed before, thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the great list! I’m sure I’ll be using some of these.

I also like http://twitterfeed.com, which allows you to Tweet RSS feeds (ie blog posts). You can choose how often it posts your feeds. It’s a great way to quickly alert your readers that there is a new post up, and I’ve gotten several new readers because of it.

This is like the condensed soup version of Twitter for Wordpress bloggers!

I see value in using more Twitter plugins, especially versions that don’t require passwords thanks to the latest round of phishing scams.

Nice customization of your Thesis theme, I like how the inside red border matches your header image.

great twitter apps list! I am pretty sure that they’ll all get integrated somehow by wordpress on their next major update.
(if you go to your wp-twitip-id settings page and use the value of “text_input” as the class for the field then it will look the same as the other fields)
