Send Feedburner Feed to Twitter

Google Feedburner have just introduced a new facility to the Publize tab on your Feedburner dashboard. You can now link directly from your feed to your Twitter account. After a short initial set up, your latest blog post will automatically be published on Twitter without the need to use a third party.

Just log into your Feedburner account and select the feed you want to publish on Twitter. Click on the Publize tab then select the socialize link from the left hand menu. Complete the form and activate.

Bingo!

Here's what your Tweet looks like after publication-notice the new Google tiny URL(goo.gl) which links back to your post.

Currently this extension only applies to Twitter but I suspect more social media will be included soon. Whilst on the subject of Twitter, I have just downloaded and am road testing TweetDeck, but more on that in another future post.
