I must confess that I'm a bit of a social networking addict. I've used many of these tools for years now, to connect with family, friends, and colleagues scattered around the globe. For us genealogists, this is a dream come true, and has really accelerated my research progress the last few years.

So, I'm always eager to find ways to mesh my social networking connectivity by posting updates to multiple platforms in a single attempt.

In this attempt, I'm testing out Drupal's Twitter module.
