Weekend Projects: Add a Twitter Question Posts to your Blog

If you haven’t noticed people like John Chow, Shoemoney and now us are starting to post questions on Twitter and then sharing the answers on our blog. This is a good way to bridge your community between twitter and your blog.

This week I will share with you how you can make your own twitter question post.

If you do not have twitter already then step one will be to sign-up. Then download a twitter tool and start following those you find interesting. Soon people will be following you.

Once you have a few people following you try posting a question. They will reply back with an @youruser name.

So now to get those replies in to your WordPress post. I have modified a script so it will look how I want. You can download this script and use it yourself on your own site. You just need to update your username, password and domain. The limitation of this script is 20 replies but I am working on another version which will allow for 100.

Open the page in your browser and highlight the replies. Copy (CTRL + C) and then go to your WordPress post and paste (CTRL + V) them in the Visual editor.

That’s it your done.

If you get stuck leave a note in the comments or catch me on twitter.
