Twitter notifications of new posts

Title:
Twitter notifications of new posts

Area:
Crossposting

Summary:
Allow me to link to my Twitter account and post the subject line and link when I post.

Description:
The one thing I really miss from LJ is Twitter posting. I don't think comments should be crosspostable or anything from a journal that you don't own. But when posting a new item to your journal (or maybe to a public community?) I would really like the option to send a Twitter notice. I have lots of friends who used to read journals and have stopped, but they will follow a link from Twitter and read if it's right in their face.

I'd post the subject line and a condensed link only.

I think this would mesh in nicely with the Pretty URLs bug: http://bugs.dwscoalition.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3483

Which shows as "in progress" from Our Fearless Leader, Well, One Of Them Anyway.
