This is a test of my brand new Twitter plugin for Wordpress.
Why would I want to write yet another Twitter plugin for Wordpress?
Simply put: I wanted it to be simple. I wanted to be able to edit the Tweet from the Post Editing screen. And I wanted the link back to be tr.im’d, not bit.ly’d, or tinyurl’d, or any other such nonsense.
Now it’s done. I’ll post it up on projects just as soon as all the bugs are worked out. (And just as soon as I get around to creating that projects page.)

We all feel this way from time to time: we get all self-absorbed, and wrapped up in our own personal “mission statements.” Nations do this, too. It is a feature of our species: it is human to be so self-absorbed.
It’s ironic then how the greatest good is done when we choose to step outside this framework.

I can imagine that being able to blog from my iPhone might be handy at some point in the future. But of all the ways to compose content, this is by far the least effective.
