Say ‘ello to @planetbods

A couple of months ago I installed a little Movable Type plugin that, when you have a new blog post published, will insert a message on a Twitter feed

Which was great. Except it didn’t work. At all. Don’t know why – the details were all correct and dandy. All was fine. It just wouldn’t publish.
Then the other day it started publishing for no apparent reason. Why? Who knows. I had done nothing. But it started working. So with that in mind, I replaced the plugin with another one that works even better. In that it published straight away.
So I thought, what can I do with this? Well how about set up a Twitter account that publishes updates to this blog? So I did. It’s called @planetbods and its yours to do with what you see fit. It doesn’t replace anything – the XML feeds naturally remain, and you can – naturally – still just come here as well. I mean. Why wouldn’t you?
