Our Posts Are Now Automatically Tweeted

The AFI News HQ Twitter just got much more beneficial and efficient. We've finally found a good way to automatically publish our headlines (as well as a link) at twitter.com/afinewshq. This removes the lag time between when we publish a post and when we finally get around to posting it to Twitter. Posts will be tweeted within a half hour of publication.

If you aren't already following us (we're on the verge of 500 followers!) make sure you do. It's a great way to keep updated on the go if your mobile phone can access Twitter. We hope to build an iPhone app soon for added functionality on that platform.

Note: the new set-up should take about an hour to process...

  6. It will have an RSS feed in it so you can read new posts when you're out and about. I expect at least a few people might find that useful. :)

  8. Everyone with iPhones & iPods have internet though. So I don't really see that much use for an app which solely gives you news.Id be interested if you can allow us to comment on news right from the app, because it's a pain on the mobile browser.
