I&#8217;ve always enjoyed getting the Mugshot client running on my desktop informing me of new RSS feeds in <a href=\"http:\/\/planetmysql.org\/\">Planet MySQL<\/a>, so I can read new blog entries relatively quickly.<\/p>\n<p>A new notification method has come upon us &#8211; its <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/\">Twitter<\/a>. When all is hunky dory, you get IMs or SMSes the moment a post is made from someone you&#8217;re following. So I give you the <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/planetmysql\">Twitter Planet MySQL<\/a> Feed<\/strong>. Just add user &#8220;<strong>planetmysql<\/strong>&#8221; as a friend you&#8217;re following, make sure that notifications are turned on, and you&#8217;ll be notified whenever the Planet is pinged (which happens every 40 minutes once, I believe).<\/p>\n<p>How is this possible? Largely thanks to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rss2twitter.com\/\">rss2twitter<\/a>. The interface is simple, and there are no controls, so I&#8217;m hoping it &#8220;just works&#8221;. The other option seems to be <a href=\"http:\/\/twitterfeed.com\/\">twitterfeed<\/a>. It seems to require an OpenID login, plus a twitter login, and probably has a lot more controls and a <a href=\"http:\/\/twitterfeed.wordpress.com\/\">blog<\/a> to boot. Its the next obvious choice if rss2twitter fails me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Update:<\/strong> I&#8217;ve started using twitterfeed. And in the first 23 hours or so, the Planet MySQL feed itself was broken, so no one got any updates. All is well now, it seems. Pinging once every hour, which is about right for Planet MySQL&#8217;s cron job.<\/p>\n<p>Technorati Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/mysql\" class=\"performancingtags\" rel=\"tag\">mysql<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/twitter\" class=\"performancingtags\" rel=\"tag\">twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/planetmysql\" class=\"performancingtags\" rel=\"tag\">planetmysql<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/planet%20mysql\" class=\"performancingtags\" rel=\"tag\">planet mysql<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/mugshot\" class=\"performancingtags\" rel=\"tag\">mugshot<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/rss2twitter\" class=\"performancingtags\" rel=\"tag\">rss2twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/twitterfeed\" class=\"performancingtags\" rel=\"tag\">twitterfeed<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While it would seem that using Mugshot is for core Linux geeks (it runs on Windows too, you know), I&#8217;ve not seen much adoption of the MySQL Mugshot Group, that was announced back in February.
