Automatically Post to Twitter from PhpFox

Here's a free tool you can use to post to your Twitter page from your Fox site, for free, and with shortened urls such as Bit.ly.

login to Twitter.

then go to http://twitterfeed.com/ and sign up.

register your Fox site RSS feed and then grant permission for TwitterFeed to access your Twitter account.

Then go through the settings and put whatever you like, such as use shortened urls and how often to check for new posts.

My site is video related, so I just use my latest videos rss feed and i'm good to go!

forgot to mention - this can post to FaceBook too!!

Thanks for sharing but this terms agreement concerns me so I won't be using it but I'm sure a lot will find it useful for them.

Thanks to mostlymom, I check this sort of stuff before using any services like this.

Twitterfeed is one way, Google Feedburner is another.

they're giving you a good service that's automated and collecting stats to do things better. all it does is auto post to your twitter/facebook, doesn't actually connect to your site or your users.

it's not a big deal and there is no concern at all.

i like feedburner too!
