I’ve updated the Twitter Digest plugin to deal with the Basic Auth mechanism going away on June 9. Basically my choice was to adopt OAuth or only fetch public tweets. I chose the latter, mostly because it was easier, but also because the impact on TD users was minimal. The one use case [...]
I’ve been experiencing some slowness of late working with Wordpress (specifically the admin dashboard) on Firefox 3.5. Opera and Safari seemed to be just fine, but it has been taking a really long time lately to do things like bring up the “Edit Page” admin page.
It finally got annoying enough that [...]
Thanks to Brian at www.bigwatersmallboat.com I’ve discovered that Twitter Digest doesn’t work in PHP4. I’ll put PHP4 support at the bottom of my todo list, but unless someone really can’t upgrade to PHP5 and really wants to use Twitter Digest, I likely won’t get to it. However, I’m more likely [...]

Added ability to ping Twitter from the options page.
Added ability to specify the [...]

I finally got around to getting a wordpress.org/extend account and uploading Twitter Digest. Check it out. Other than having to delve into the depths of my past to remember how to do stuff with Subversion, the process was pretty painless.
At the same time, I’ve fixed a bug and added the option to display [...]
I noticed this morning that the tag cloud on whalespine.org was looking a bit big. I’ve been adding more tags, so I guess that is to be expected. I figured I could adjust some setting or css and voila, the tags would be smaller. No go. The default Wordpress tag cloud [...]
A new version of Twitter Tools has been released (so I was wrong when I said it was not being maintained). Among other things it appears the digest features have been fixed, although I haven’t tried to use them myself yet. If you still just want a digest type functionality, you are [...]
