Tweet Box one of Twitter Miracles that can happen @Anywhere on your Blog

Twitter @Anywhere API

The Tweet Box delivered by @Anywhere is a miracle, and yes you can really take it anywhere now 😉

It’s free for anyone to use it on any blog/site, the usage is limited only by your own imagination, so let’s start adding this feature and see how we can use it on our blogs as a simple and fast way to get feedback from your visitors, or receive their questions which out they have to open the mostly boring contact us page! Using the Tweet Box is much easier for your visitors and for you to interact with them! But that doesn’t mean you should remove your contact us page, this is a very important and must have page for any blog 😉

I had a question from Karan yesterday, asking “how did you get that tweet box under the author information after each post?”

This is a good question for me, it will allow me to write a nice fallow post to Linkify Twitter usernames Anywhere in Thesis Theme TwitterLink Comments, and to answer this question I assume you all know that we are running Thesis Theme on this blog, so basically what I am going to talk about (this is what I like to do) should have a relation with WordPress blogs that runs on Thesis Theme!

How Start Fast?

tweet box @anywhere

I love the Tweet box because it’s provide another way of communication on our blog, and because I personally use it!

You can start by reading my latest post to know how to add @Anywhere scripts to your blog/site, you can jump to step 3 and continue to step 5, in that post I talked about adding Hovercards to Twitter user-name in comments and actually it works everywhere on the blog, but here we are talking about the Tweet Box, basically we will need to remove the Hovercards script and add the Tweet Box script, you can simply get it from the official page, this link will take you directly to the Tweet Box script, also take a look while you are there to the whole official @Anywhere developers page instructions for more information.

Why Tweet Box?

I wanted to add a fast way for our blog readers and visitors to contact with us with out having to use our contact page unless there is something we really need to talk about through email, so… now you have both options to go for, I am on Twitter almost all the time, so I will reply question @FamousBlogger on Twitter if I get any!

    Nice article. But twitter recently made some changes in this API process. It would be better if you kindly explain the updated process. Thanks.

      I am still using the same codes and functions and it's working on this blog! although I have removed the tweet box while redesigning the blog! Cheers!
  2. jibone says:
    Hmmm could you put in just any random Twitter account?
    • Hesham says:
      Sorry for the late reply! I believe yes, you can put any Twitter account, also some extra text if you want!

    Yes there are so many twitter related plug in, but I think if we add load plug in on our blog our blog will slow down, which is not good for SEO. .-= NEW from chandan@work at home blog´s last blog ..Search freelancing work at home jobs =-.
    • Hesham says:
      Actually this is not a plugin, it's a script that you have to add it manually into your code, although I agree with you that a lot of plugin is not good for any blog, not only because blog speed but because you probably will get lots error and non valid HTML/CSS , this is why I am on my way to reduce plugin on this blog!
      • chandan says:
        Thanks for your reply. Well Hesham, I want to use some necessary plug in and I think you can help me. Below are the plug in I need, please inform me the source where I can get. 1. Related post plug in like you installed. I have tried some plug in, but it need to manually select the related post. So what is the best plug in which automatically show the related post below each post. 2. Problem: When I comment on commentluv enable blog it is now showing the same post, show what the problem arise or what I have to set for it? 3. Plug in for guest post that you installed below your post, where I get that plug in. 4. Is there any plug in so that I can follow people automatically who follow me? Thanks .-= NEW from chandan@work at home blog´s last blog ..Search freelancing work at home jobs =-.
        • Hesham says:
          Cool! 1- For related posts, I am using WordPress Related Posts Plugin, basically you don't choose manually, it depends on your post tags, so... give it a try and you will know how to control that some how in future! 2- Visit ComLuv site, check your account or tweet to Andy @CommentLuv, he will help you! 3- If you mean the "author box", I am not using a plugin... let me find a post by my friend James, it will help you to add Author Bio box without a plugin, it has exactly the same code I am using here! 4- use socialoomph.com to do the job! you can do more than automatically follow who followed you on Twitter by having their free account! * I hope this help!
          • chandan says:
            Thank you so much Hesham for your kind help. I also asked Harsh about related post plug in and he informed me about Yet another post plug in, I have installed it and it is working good. I have already asked Andy about my problem on twitter. Now I am busy with socialoomph.com for set up my account. .-= NEW from chandan@work at home blog´s last blog ..Search freelancing work at home jobs =-.
