I got retweeted and now I’m the ish!

Earlier today someone I follow on twitter (USA Network) posted a retweet which caused me to follow someone else. I ended up tweeting about the topic (who you’d burn) and it got retweeted by Burn Notice on twitter. I chose to burn Stephenie Meyer for Twilight (have you seen that movie? It’s horrible, don’t get me started…), Christian Bale and Tom Cruise for their less than positive behavior that seems to surface all to often making them seem like douches on Kanye’s level (the video’s after the jump), and Sarah Palin for getting far far too close to the White House. Apparently the person who run’s Burn Notice on twitter liked my choice and retweeted it, sans the Christian Bale and Tom Cruise remarks. Which just goes to show, other people think Twilight sucked as well. Someone tweeted back in response to it. (continue reading…)

Trying a new WordPress twitter plugin for the blog. Eventually I’m going to figure out how I can make the Twitter API say my blog tweets are from BtDubZ but that’s weeks away. For now, I’m just going to test out TweetSuite. Hopefully I can customize the style of the tweets section in the right sidebar cause Wickett’s Twitter Widget is nice and all but it lacks customization, which is a major con for me.

Testing Wordpress Twitter plugin

I’m only posting this to test my latest plugin that’s supposed to tweet whenever I post a new blog entry. It’s called “Tweet This” and hopefully it works better than WP Twitter. I customized the prefix string in WP Twitter and it didn’t work so I’m not using it anymore.

*Update*
So much for “Tweet This”. Had tweet prefix customization but it didn’t actually tweet that way. Using “TweetMyBlog!”. Hmm. Maybe it’ll actually bring me in some money like it claims. Doubt it but why not try?

Blogging vs Tweeting

I’ve had people ask me why both after they found out I tweet and blog. Well it’s simple. A tweet can be about whatever you want and so can a blog post. I analogize tweets to summaries and blogs to essays. If someone does something stupid, I’d tweet about it. If someone does something really stupid that makes me want to talk about it, I’d blog about it.
