walkah: Twitter module for Drupal

Twitter module for Drupal

I finally broke down and started playing around with Twitter the other night. As chance would have it, I happened to see a reference to the Twitter Updater plugin for Wordpress and thought "hey, that would be an easy drupal module". That's a game I used to play (or at least do something about) much more regularly, however, the stars were aligned (or maybe it's the new glasses). So I threw together a Twitter module for Drupal.

So far, it functions a lot like the wordpress plugin. Each user can use their own twitter account and have their own "format" for the text that gets posted to twitter when they create a new post. When you create content, twitter gets notified.

So if you are a drupal user and a twitter user, check out the module and check out me on twitter. Enjoy.

How do you get the module to do anything? I activated the module, but I don't see anywhere else to change anything. Do I have to write php code to get it to do something?
thanks

Right now, you simply add your twitter account information (my account -> edit) and it will begin posting things to twitter. Documentation and more features coming :)
