How To Embed A Single Tweet In Your Blog, Site etc

There are several services out there that allows you to embed a tweet into your blog or website. I don't know all of them. Some allows you to embed a single tweet at a time and others allow you to embed rows of tweets. This service Tweetpaste allows you to embed a single tweet into your blog or website. How to do it? Simply find and copy the tweet url: status link (see here if you don't know how to find the status link of a tweet). Visit the tweet paste website and insert the link. Instructions should be available over at the site. You will be given a preview of how the tweet looks. When you have copied the html and pasted it into your blog etc, tweetpaste will then notify the tweet owner on twitter by sending them a tweet and the url of the blog or site where the tweet was embedded. The only thing with this service is that it does not allow you to re-size the frame used to showcase the tweet even though they say it is re-sizable. One of the reasons for this is because it uses an iframe. iframes are not re-sizable.

Want to Tweet About Someone's Twitter Username Without Them Knowing?

If you would like to quietly buzz about someone without them knowing you can either block them for no reason which I must say is totally outrageous! At least your tweet won't show up in their time line but neither will their tweets show up in your time line. And what if you decide to unblock them? Then they'll see your tweets so that is too far fetched an idea. There has to be a better way right? Well there is! You can use this example @/spunkyduckling where you put a slash or line between the at and their user name. Your tweet will not show up in their @replies. The only way for them to find out if you have tweeted about them would be if they do a search on their name using twitter search box.

Set Up A Tweet This Link (Neat Trick)

Set up a " Tweet This" link on your blogs without using any software or plugins. If you are familiar with basic HTML, you can cut and paste the HTML below and customize as necessary to suit your site. Now here's the trick. When someone clicks on your tweet this link, they will be taken to twitter where the tweet text is already filled in for them and all they have to do is simply hit the update button. Of course they can edit the text before clicking the twitter update button. Just change the part of the text that is in bold to your own domain name of your website or the particular page or blog post is better and your twitter name. As for personalizing your own text the words between the two bold sentence gap, just follow the pattern of separating each word with a comma. Tip: test your link before to make sure the tweet is 140 or less characters.
