Wierd Results After Twitter Tools Update

Today I noticed my posts were no longer sydicating out to Twitter. I actually noticed it first when I was updating my Facebook profile last night and didn’t see any status updates coming from Twitter since the 17th. It seems there is a new setting in the options to set the Twitter update for each blog post to default. One would think checking the box to send blog posts to Twitter would be enough. There must be a new option to choose which posts to syndicate independently.
I also notice the sidebar widget is showing oldest items first. I thought that was a setting as well, but after changing the setting in the options to be newest first, the widget is still showing oldest first. ARRRRGGGGHHHHH!
I always cringe each time I go through a Wordpress update or plugin update, you never know what the impact might be. The increased post volume has also brought about much more comment SPAM. Luckily, Akismet is plugging away catching all of the SPAM, and I simply go in, review the SPAM queue and delete it.

Originally from Wisconsin, I moved out to Salt Lake City over ten years ago on a six month software development contract. I now have over 15 years in software development, and was introduced to internet marketing back in 2003. During the wild west days, our business focused on content sites for Adsense revenue. As it became harder and harder to keep up with the search engines, our business has evolved, and forced us to focus on building lists and creating products. We now have a list of about 5000 interested in goal setting, and a small internet marketing list of about 500.
