Twitter Everywhere - Use It From Nearly Anywhere

This week Twitter announced a new platform known as @anywhere. The app helps popular websites integrate Twitter features with ease. Yahoo, Amazon, eBay, Bing, YouTube, AdAge, MSNBC, Digg, The Huffington Post and The New York Times are a few of Twitter's partners with a headstart on this project.

On the Twitter blog, Biz Stone states: "We've developed a new set of frameworks for adding this Twitter experience anywhere on the web. Soon, sites many of us visit every day will be able to recreate these open, engaging interactions providing a new layer of value for visitors without sending them to Twitter.com."

He went on to say: "Our open technology platform is well known and Twitter APIs are already widely implemented but this is a different approach because we've created something incredibly simple. Rather than implementing APIs, site owners need only drop in a few lines of javascript."
