Automatically retrieve Twitter Replies to your Blog's Posts. These Twitter Replies are handled like Posts Comments. Also bring Twitter Statistics.

== Description ==
Automatically retrieve Twitter Replies to your Blog's Posts. These Twitter Replies are handled like Posts Comments, using WP built-in comment system.

Here is how Twitter Replies / Twitter Updates work:

1. You Post an article on your blog
2. You update your Twitter status (or let the plugin do it for you)
3. You automatically get all related Twitter Replies as comments to your Post

The plugin also brings two widgets:

1. Analytics charts showing how many Twitter Replies you are receiving
2. Listings of your 20 most recent Twitter Conversations

== Installation ==
1. Unzip then upload the `twitoaster` folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
2. Activate the plugin through the `Plugins` menu in WordPress
3. Enter the [Twitoaster API Key](http://twitoaster.com/api/authentication/ "Twitoaster API Authentication") linked to your Twitter account
4. Go to the `Settings` -> `Twitoaster` to manage options (Twitter Replies, Twitter Status updates, Twitter Charts...)

The plugin uses the [Twitoaster API](http://twitoaster.com/api/ "Twitoaster API - Twitter conversations and statistics") to search for posts URLs in your Twitter updates (url shorteners are supported). Each Twitter update found sees its replies added as comments to the matching post. The widgets (Twitter charts and Twitter conversations) also use the [Twitoaster API](http://twitoaster.com/api/ "Twitoaster API - Twitter conversations and statistics").
