The Original Problem
After Installing the Linksalpha WordPress Plugin I noticed that my Latest Post was Automaticaly being reposted every few Hours as a New Post. I could not Understand Why because allthough I had enabled the Plugin to Access my WordPress blog in my Links Alpha Account I had Disabled the Plugin after some problems I noticed with the Plugin as it was still Autoposting to my blog even thought the Plugin was Deleted.
The Source of the Problem.
Strangely enough I found the Source of the Problem with Autoposting to my Blog not in my WordPress Admin Panel but on Twitter. But finding the Source of this Autoposting to my blog problem was further complicated because I am trying out the new Twitter Interface the reason simply is that the New Twitter no longer says where you Tweeted from. Before on the Older Interface you Could see that Someone Tweeted from the Web or another example would be from Hootsuite. Take a Look at the Images to get a Better Understanding.

Possible Further Problems
As you Can See the Old Twitter Interface would Show where the Tweet has came from such as Tweets from iPhone Apps and other twitter clients, But the New Twitter just shows the Tweet itself and not the source of the tweet. This make it very hard for people to understand the source of problems with online apps and could lead to bloggers making big mistakes by disabling all the plugins because they cant find the root of the problem in WordPress. This could lead to having to Reinstall, Disabling SEO and anti Scraping Plugins resulting in Loss of traffic being more open to plagiarism , Loosing RSS readers because it is Auto reposting the same Article Title Again and Again and not to loosing twitter followers because something is making your account tweet the same thing all day.

Besides my blog here on this Unfocused blog I also write about Instrumental Music on my other blog |
I am not a wordpress user but I only noticed that twitter no longer tells you where are you tweeted from. Most of the time it might be important to know where tweets are coming from as we are using so many other services to auto tweet
Yes the new twitter makes way for more spambots in my opnion. Before if I seen many tweets from one user using just an api i would remove them as I knew they were not really on twitter and provide no networking value to me as a blogger.
Seriously? I do not think anyone should be using any software or app to tweet. This takes away from everything Twitter should be, not just self promotion but personal interaction and networking. I hate autoposts with a passion, and refuse to follow anyone who primarily uses this on Twitter.
Of the People I follow on Twitter about 99% of them are only posting links there is no conversation whatsoever It’s all self promotion and very little conversation. When I chat on Twitter I see my followers increase but there are not many twitter users willing to chat. Thanks for your Comment
