I came across this specific post on using the twitter actions to auto tweet the title and the shortened url.

It would be good to have this as part of the twitter module

Here is a patch that allows auto tweeting with url shortening

i'm looking over this patch and trying to figure out where it calls the external URL shortener

EDIT: never mind. I see that twitter.module already has the function that implements TinyURL and this just needs to call it.

I have posted about how to set up auto tweet in drupal using this module and this patch.
Is this patch going to go into CVS?

Marking this as a duplicate of #428846 which has a slightly more preferable patch (IMHO) which only generates a shortened URL if it will actually be used.
