Issue Summary
The screenshot ALMOST provides a Twitter example. How about one that works? Here's what I did:
Request URI:
http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml
Request type:
POST
Request headers:
Authorization:
Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Request data:
status=blog:+%title+%node_url
(Note that the help text in the screenshot suggesting string placeholders such as %title is NOT displayed on my installation ... it only says "Optionally, any data that should be sent with the request.")
This has been hooked to the trigger "When either saving a new post or updating an existing post" on the trigger configuration page, but it doesn't seem to have any affect at all. What am I missing?
Some debug logging would probably help in cases like this.

Unfortunately, Twitter no longer allows these kinds of direct calls via HTTP requests without OAuth. I'll be doing some updates on the module and rolling a new release soon, I'll try to put together a better example.
