Developer Support
Ok, we know there's still a lot of work to do on the site. Over time, we'll add more and more options and support for developers and users alike. For now, we're happy to announce that we are launching with EXTREMELY rudimentary developer support.
If you're a twitter client developer and wish to add the ability for your users to easily create shirts right from your client, all you need to do is grab a tweet's permalink:
http://twitter.com/gruber/statuses/866518723
and replace the base URL of twitter.com with choicetweets.com
So your new ChoiceTweets permalink becomes:
http://choicetweets.com/gruber/statuses/866518723
Once you hit ChoiceTweets with a properly formed permalink, we'll take care of the rest!
Future enhancements may include:
- Per twee-shirt sales reporting
- List of users who turned tweet into a twee-shirt
- Bookmarklet support for other twitter-aggregation sites
- Support of other microblogging services (Identi.ca will likely come first as it's API is a clone of Twitter's)
