As mentioned below, I downloaded Alex King’s Twitter Tools WordPress plugin earlier today. The intention was to try and get it to work with the Sideblog plugin. And it does! I created a category called “Asides”, told Sideblog and the Twitter Tools to use that category and then told Twitter Tools to create a new blog post from each of my tweets.
The result? I can blog by text message from my mobile phone! Ok, I’m still limited to 140 characters (a limit imposed by Twitter) and it’s in the sidebar, but damn I’m pleased! You saw it here first (ish) folks!
Still got some funky re-loading going on with the blog in Internet Explorer which I need to try and figure out though. Anyone got any ideas?
That’s a much better Twitter plugin than I was using, ta!

I’m confused. I tried to configure my Tweeter options to post 7 tweets, but which Sidebar Widget do I use? Sideblog or Twitter? Because only 1 post shows up.
