Dripbook made a Twitter auto-posting application > UPDATED.
Posted on 19th April 2009 by Alex Wright

Dripbook has a new way to automatically alert your Twitter feed (and all those following you on Twitter) when you make updates on Dripbook. This is another great way to improve your exposure and to keep others up-to-date on your new work.

UPDATED : As expected, Twitter has made an adjustment to their system. So, you no longer need to enter your Twitter username and password within your Dripbook account. You can just authenticate and go. Details are below.

Here's how it works (it's super simple):

1) Consider following Dripbook on Twitter. You don't have to, but it's a great way to stay in touch. And, we like you...

2) Head to your Controls > Promote > Post to Twitter

3) Register your Twitter account on Dripbook and allow Dripbook to post to your Twitter account.

4) You're done. You can even cusomize the message that goes out before the link to your updated work.

Dripbook's automatic posts to Twitter are fired off on a delayed basis after you make an update. We do this because we know that you make many small changes each time you update a book - so rather than overwhelm Twitter, we send out one update per 24 hours when we see you've changed your book.

You can, though send an instant update via the provided check box.

Okay. That's it. Pretty simple. More promotional tools for you. Thanks so much to Brandon Oelling of X-equals for the assistance concepting and testing this.
