Syndicate JotHut.com posts to Twitter using the share button

Update: 01Nov2013

To get ToledoTalk.com's thread posts to appear in the Toledo Talk Twitter page, I use some kind of feed service that reads TT's RSS feed.

But I like this "lo-fi" idea better, suggested by http://www.sandeep.io at this IndieWeb page: http://indiewebcamp.com/POSSE

I primarily syndicate to Twitter using a very lo-fi solution of adding silo (Facebook, Twiiter, Google+) provided share links to each post that I can manually click to prefill content, edit and post. I've avoided API integration because of the extensive experience I've had using Facebook API and dealing with it's random changes. "Integration" has high costs sometimes so I keep it as simple as possible.

I added the Twitter share a link button code to my blogpost.tmpl and microblogpost.tmpl templates.

The Twitter share a link button only appears for my posts when I'm logged in.
Obviously, most people would use such a share a link so that anyone can see it, but I'm using it to manually post to the JotHut Twitter page and not to share to my personal Twitter page, which I'm not using right now.

And I'm only using the Twitter share a link button.
