CivicApps Twitter Broadcasts

Brainstorming on Twitter broadcasts of new content (datasets, ideas, apps) on CivicApps:

• Hook into Drupal's node_insert to publicize new content immediately.
  • Simple data: Node title (since it's probably short enough), short link back to site
• Later, re-post content if it hits certain thresholds:
  • Fifth comment left
  • Four-star rating reached
  • Provide more info: "Hot idea!", "Four stars in six days!", "Five comments!", etc.
