Just wondered if there is or if anyone from SMF would be working on a Twitter bridge to tweet posts made on the forum?

Any help here would be awesome... ;)

I am working on this, currently its working on my forum fairly well, its very basic and you will have to create a twitter app for your own forum,  it will be only for RC4 since it uses a hook only avaliable in 2.0 RC4

so far I added support to the bit.ly API as well as to determinate the boards where the mod will work.
Oh, wouldn't it be great if I *was* crazy? ...then the world would be okay

Simply: use FeedBurner and use a valid source rss (just for topic or for all posts) to auto-publish also in twitter ;)

On twitter they provide you with a script. Only thing it only works on  my theme Manuscript  vers 1.1.13 does not work on the default Core. any suggestions. Seems Manuscript theme gives you the option under current theme to add script, but default does not.  :(

I just use Twitterfeed on my forum (for Facebook, I use RSS Graffiti).

I added under Settings_template.php >function_template_settings()
function template_settings()
{
   global $context, $settings, $options, $scripturl, $txt;

   $context['theme_settings'] = array(
      array(
         'id' => 'mysidebar',
         'label' => 'Sidebar area',
         'description' => 'Use any HTML/javascript code',
         'type' => 'textarea',
      ),
It produced a box in both Core theme and Space themes(vers.1.113)  in admin>options&preferences, when I use the twitter script as I did in the Manuscript theme, nothing comes up. Only Manuscript theme shows my actual twitter live, maybe some coders will know how to get this going in smf core, and my other theme space (which I use) lol I got the box in the admin panel, now need some advance coders to help. Maybe have to do some editing in other parts so it accepts the javascript or html ??
