Twitterlights is just another great feature of i-Lighter which also has one click bookmarking to del.icio.us, blogging, and email features. More features being added all the time. And now Mac compatible. Thank you for bringing this great application to the attention of your readers.
Thanks Emily and Cheryl - I’m new to Twitter and was just at the twitterlights site but looking for reviews. Your post and comments help - does that mean that if I publish a new post on my blog, Twitterlights will also send this to Twitter with one click or am I misunderstanding?
Hi Tanya - Twitterlights is meant for highlighting a passage of text, then twittering a link to that passage via Twitter. If you want an automatic way to have your blog posts “twittered,” you can try a service like http://twitterfeed.com/ which pulls off of your blog RSS feed each time you publish. Hope that helps.
