This plugin allows you to automatically post your new posts on the twitter website.

== Description ==

Welcome to a new release of Twitme,

This is version 1.6.8 and it will bring a big fix to a issue that some blogs had and a discussion that was out publicly as well. If 
you would be feeding your blog with external rss blog posts then this could result in massposts to Twitter. I have added the option
to ignore posts in a given category so that if you import posts to a special category it would not flood Twitter. 


This new option also allows you to have one category on your blog lets say "Twitter friends" and you could tell Twitme to dont send posts
from all the other categorys except those in "Twitter friends". In that case you would mark all the categories to disallow except the "Twitter friends" 
category.


**Note**: Twitme does not work in combination with other Twitter plugins like "Twitter Tools". Make sure you disable those plugins before you 
install Twitme (This goes for any version of Twitme).   



New in version 1.6.8: 

 1. Fixed the Date notation bug that sliped into the code since jan 2009.
 2. Added an option to omit categories from being posted to Twitter.
 
 


**Plugin Summary:**

This plugin allows you to automatically post your new posts on the twitter website. This is good because for example the iPod and iPhone 
for example have a large amount of twitter clients to pick from. Your blog posts will arrive to people while they are walking the streets.
