Feature Update: More Twitter!

We have just introduced an additional Twitter option and made some key wording changes to the existing FeedBlitz Twitter service. Basically, there are now two versions of the Twitter service, which appear at subscription time for premium FeedBlitz publishers:

1. Twitter (your timeline) - the original service, so your Twitter followers see the updates as if you had posted them yourself;
2. Twitter (direct to you) - you alone get the update.

What does this mean? Basically, if you want to "microblog" with Twitter, i.e. get your posts onto your subscribers' mobile phones, subscribe to your blog with your Twitter account using option (1). Updates are posted to your public account timeline, all your followers on Twitter will get them too.

If you simply want your subscriptions (and you can of course have as many as you like) on your Twitter-supported device, choose option (2). FeedBlitz will send you a Twitter Direct message, and none of your followers need know about your personal obsessions and persuasions.

Both forms work the same way. FeedBlitz uses your Twitter ID and password to validate your account information. You can also pause, delete or preview your subscription from feedblitz.com web site as well, provided that you have linked your Twitter identity to your email address.
