Tweetbacks

People are talking about your posts, and not only in the comments to your post. A lot of that conversation is happening on Twitter, and now, you can take that conversation right back to your blog! This plugin imports those tweets about your posts as comments. You can display them in between the other comments on your blog, or display them separately. More info:

• TweetBacks.

• Copy the folder to the plugins directory of your blog.
• Enable the plugin in your admin panel.
