Yes - I Still Like Twitter!

If you've been following my saga over the last few weeks, you'll know that I was temporarily suspended from Twitter due to a cross-site attack, that caused an inappropriate spam link to be injected into my tweetstream. While I am still disappointed that it took Twitter customer service almost two weeks to reinstate me, I do still like Twitter.

In an effort to "bury the hatchet", I am re-posting links to some components I wrote to bring Twitter into SharePoint. The first two are simple and fancy Federated Location Definitions for Search Server 2008, or MOSS Search (post-Infrastructure Update). The third is a simple Data View web part that can provide a twitter search result on any SharePoint page, including WSS.
