With Quick Blogcast, you can add a Twitter® link to your sidebar.
Twitter is a social blogging service that allows users to submit posts through instant messaging, SMS, or the Twitter Web site. Posts are instantly sent to subscribers through instant messaging, SMS, or RSS. The most common way for subscribers to receive new posts is through a mobile device.
You must register with Twitter to use the service. For more information, visit www.twitter.com.
NOTE: You can only use the Twitter sidebar feature for unprotected streams. For example, if you have set your Twitter account to private, you will not see any messages except those that are undefined.
