  I have my blog set up to automatically post new blog entries to Twitter. Why do all of the Twitter updates have a “View Media” option attached to them? Also, clicking on the View Media option on the Twitter update just shows a blank screen. See my Twitter feed for examples (@AmendTheConstitution).

  Hi there,

  Could you please send me a link to your Twitter profile? I’m unable to find it.

  It would also be helpful if you could send us a link to a screenshot so that I can see what you see:

  Here is the twitter profile:

  Not sure how to get a screenshot to you, but just look for posts on my twitter page with the “View Media” option…all of those were made using the auto-post to Twitter feature.

  Twitter is testing a new feature which allows the blog posts to appear in the tweet, hence the “View Media” option.

  This seems to work off and on, but today appears to be one of those off days.

  It’s never worked for me during the past two weeks.

  Yeah, there is definitely an issue on Twitter’s end, but since this is a new feature that they’re testing, it’s hard to say when it will be working again.
