Does anyone know of a way to auto-tweet the now playing track to Twitter? I've been looking all over, but I keep coming up empty

Authorization to connect to twitter is a bit of a tricky thing. It used to be easier, and a person could script something up fairly easy. Now with it's new requirements, it's less trivial. I don't know of any sort of script that can do it.

But i might also caution against doing it. A twitter account being constantly updated is something I would never follow.  Too much. Better if it merely tweeted the start of a specific show.

Lane,

Thanks. Actually I was going to create a feed specific to the playlist instead of the general station's feed.
