Ez Twitter Links Plugin
Here’s another great plugin from Josh Jones at eight7teen – who, if you didn’t know is the guy who created the sexy bookmarks plugin that I love (I can’t help it, I’m a total geek when it comes to the visual stuff!).
This plugin is called EZ Twitter Links. What it does is it allows you to link to a twitter user’s profile from within your post. So, to give a quick example of this plugin in action, here’s a quick thanks for another fabulous plugin to @eight7teen . So, where in the first line of this post I manually created a link to Josh’s site, the link to his twitter profile will be automatically generated once I publish this post!
Another cool feature of this plugin is that it works for twitter hashtags too! You just use the hashtag like you would in a regular tweet # – (put the name of the tag right after the hash symbol) and it will generate an automatic link to the twitter search for that tag. Cool, huh? All links are no follow and all you have to do is install it and you’re ready to go. Nothing to configure!
Thanks for another great plugin Josh!
So how did you get your sharing links bar to expand to two lines when you hover? Mine won’t do that…
Thanks!
Ah, the updated 2.5 version killed it. I’ve reverted to the older version. Never mind.
i just love to Twitter everyday with my friends. Twitter is much better than blogging in my opinion and it is very addictive too.

Thanks for the comment Kristine – I totally agree, twitter is addictive!

Great little plugin, i’ve heard of it several times but keep forgetting to install it. I have a few sites that i use sexy bookmarks on too, it’s awesome.
Also a sucker for visuals
Thanks Josiah,
I know what you mean…there are so many twitter plugins that sometimes I forget after I’ve seen one to install it!
Thanks for the comment!
