Birdo – Twitter Comments Plugin

Description

Birdo makes WordPress comments more powerful and social. It lets your users comment with a tweet, spurring the conversation and promoting your website at the same time.

How it works

When your user uses Birdo to make a comment on your website, he’s asked to authenticate with his Twitter account, and his comment will appear on your website and on his Twitter page, always with a shortened version of the post address.
This way, every comment is a promotion on the twitter social network to every friend of your user.

Testimonials

Notes

The plugin tries to automatically inherit the styles of your blog, but sometimes you can need to adjust the css for full integration (we can give you basic instructions, if you need).
Birdo uses standard WordPress functions to work, so it should be compatible with most themes. We are always adding compatibility to new themes, when we found some that it doesn’t work (if the theme is not coded correctly, and miss the WP hook Birdo uses, it could not work right out of the bat, but you can easily make it work with a one line addiction to your theme code. You probably won’t need to do that).
