Does anyone know how to get Drupal to "push" content out to other services?
For example:
- I make a post using a "short content" content type and the post is published to my twitter feed.
- I make a post using a "links" content type and it gets pushed to my delicious account.
Functionality like that.
I have found plenty of modules for pulling content in to Drupal, but I want to push out. Any ideas?

another method is to set up your "other sites" to pull feeds from drupal is they allow it.
Thanks, but those are
Thanks, but those are definitely not what I'm looking for. Those are for visitors to post a link (possibly slightly more) to my content on external services -- plus they usually just link to the "post new thing" section of the given sites.
To add more clarity: I'm not looking for a way to let other people share my content, I want an automated push of my content to go out from Drupal to other service when I publish content. This would imply, to a certain extent, that a backend module would, say, need my twitter user/pass and once I publish something it will hook into that and update my twitter account with a new item saying "Chuy just posted, see this link".
More along those lines.

AFAIK, there is no module that does what you want exactly the way you want. there is a ping.module in core that may be worth investigating docs: http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/ping and http://drupal.org/project/multiping
Bump :)
I'd be happy with any thing that might just be a push in the right direction.
For example, this RDF plugin (http://drupal.org/project/rdfcck) has some similarities (the ability to map internal content types to something external).
Did you ever get a push in
Did you ever get a push in the right direction? I'm also looking for similar functionality.
