Twitter has announced its ‘@anywhere’ platform for websites,which allows site visitors to Tweet and follow from sites including Digg, Amazon and eBay. Check out the video at the bottom of the page.
Initially @anywhere will be implemented by sites including Amazon, AdAge, Bing, Citysearch, Digg, eBay, The Huffington Post, Meebo, MSNBC.com, The New York Times, Salesforce.com, Yahoo!, and YouTube.
Twitter promises that @anywhere will be simple for site owners to implement as rather than using APIs, site owners need only “drop in a few lines of JavaScript.”
Williams said that there were “no real rules” about how site owners should use the frameworks and they were leaving it to developers to decide. “There’s a lot that can be done with this that we can’t anticipate,” he said.
Twitter is certainly excited about the frameworks, saying in a blog post “Imagine being able to follow a New York Times journalist directly from her byline, tweet about a video without leaving YouTube, and discover new Twitter accounts while visiting the Yahoo home page.”
