Bot Social is a Bot submodule which listens for URLs for Twitter posts to be mentioned in a channel. When it detects one, it uses the Twitter API to fetch the “tweet” and echoes it back into the channel, saving everyone a click.

Conceptually, it could be expanded to work with similar services such as Identi.ca or the like.

Example usage:

[12:54pm] Albright: Hey, this is interesting: http://twitter.com/alanjosephburke/status/22787388076
[12:54pm] ABs_Bot: http://twitter.com/alanjosephburke/status/22787388076 is @alanjosephburke (Alan Burke): "Already, More people claim they WILL attend Drupalcon Chicago http://tinyurl.com/33c8bsv, than claimed they attended Drupalcon CPH #drupal"

It is hoped that this module will soon be in use for Druplicon, the bot which populates the most popular Drupal-related IRC channels; until then, if you'd like a demonstration of Bot Social, find me on IRC (username "Albright") and ask me to turn on my own bot so that you can play with it.
