Blog to twitter, hiding the complicated
I've set up so that it's possible to get update notifications of Abiro Mobile News via twitter. I used twitterfeed for this.
It's already simple to read my blog and many other feeds via wap.abiro.com, and then you get the complete text in the entries so this is not very important, but I did it to test the possibilities.
The delivery chain for providing my blog to twitter is this (at least currently):
Me → Blogger → FeedBurner → twitterfeed → twitter → Web/e-mail/SMS etc
What you get in the end is a short note with a link to the blog entry. TinyURL is used to shrink the URL to the blog entry, so that as much as possible of the entry text can be included in the twitter message.
The twitter account is called abiromobilenews, if you want to try it out.
