How to tweet frequently-used text
More Twitter tips and tricks.
Do you ever need to tweet the same text in many tweets? I, for example, have to explain how to avoid my repeat tweets. Typing in this tweet is a pain in the ass. So much so that I used to “favorite” tweets that I had to answer and handle them later with Tweetdeck on my MacBook.
Now Tweetie and TextExpander are integrated. This means that I type in “zrepeat,” press the space key, and “This explains what you can do: http://holkaw.alltop.com/the-art-of-the-repeat-tweet” automatically appears. I use 223 of these “text expansions” between my Macintosh and iPhone (you can sync the TextExpander data file across multiple Macs and phones).
Check out the Tweetie-TextExpander combination if you repeatedly tweet the same text. Thanks to @steverubel for pointing this out to me.

typing on the iphone.
If I'm doing something wrong I want to know because auto-expansion on iPhone would ROCK! I love it on my laptop. Use it on iPhone as well, but copy/paste.
