feed your blog to twitter

Good news for anyone worried about entering their twitter username/password unencrypted: twitterfeed now uses SSL on the pages where you enter your twitter account info.

Eventually, once twitter starts supporting API authentication officially (see http://twitter.com/oauth), I’m planning to migrate twitterfeed to use oAuth also, doing away with the need for anyone having to enter twitter passwords. But in the meantime, at least you’ll know that the pages where you do so are encrypted.

I should say a big “thank you” to all the kind twitterfeed supporters who have donated money, making developments like these possible (as well as contributing to the continuing running of the site). And thank to Josh, who prompted me into setting it up (and pointed me to the affordable GoDaddy SSL Certificates).
