Dan Zarrella wants to keep me busy...

Dan Zarrella, the social media pro who created Tweetbacks, released yesterday a new Wordpress module which encompasses Tweetbacks and even more Twitter functionality for blogs. Called TweetSuite, this add-on brings in things such as a "ReTweet This" button for each post in the Tweetback list, as well as a Digg-style badge for blog entries.

So now, I'll have to add all these features to the Drupal Tweetbacks module.

One of the TweetSuite functions I won't have to implement, however. The Twitter module for Drupal already handles sending out a tweet whenever you create new content on a site, so anyone wanting that can use that module instead.

For now, however, the Drupal Tweetbacks module still shows what tweets a page has collected, as well as which pages have the most tweets, on your Drupal site. If anyone wants to help out with developing the module, patches are always welcome!
