So if you set a message to post in 0 hours, it’ll post when the next cron job is ran (ie within 10 minutes).

Anyone who entered messages to be sent were automatically sent.  Anything still scheduled will go out at their scheduled time.

Sorry about that guys,

So you can still send your twitter updates even when twitter is blocked by school or work firewalls. :)

For example, the twitter ID is the unique part of your twitter page.

My twitter page:
http://www.twitter.com/ShannonCole

So my twitter id would be: ShannonCole

Yes, I’m fully aware that my site is called Twit Response…

Twit = Short for Twitter… Twitter + AutoResponder… TwitResponse… Get it?  I thought it was clever.

TwitResponse!

From little less than 48 hours ago cmiddlebrook made a comment about wishing she could schedule twitter posts which got me thinking that this would be a great site idea.

I find myself wanting to space out my updates a little. I find that because I only get a few hours a night online I have a lot to say and post, but can’t because I don’t want to annoy my followers.

I know myself that it’s very irritating to have the same person posting 20-30 posts all at once. Some things I would want to post immediately (like what I’m doing at the moment), but other things I would want to post later (cool site, blog post, upcoming event, etc).

So with that in mind, I went to work Friday night and created TwitResponse. It’s an autoresponder for twitter.

Considering the fact that the site went from idea to live in less than 48 hours (lot less actual programming hours) I suspect there are bugs. That’s why it’s currently in beta. Give it a try and let me know if you have any problems.
