Drupal Modules for Twitter and other Social Networking Platforms
I have now brought my Drupal sites back to just 1, and converted the rest of my Drupal sites into wordpress. With the 1 Drupal site left, it’s a constant headache of weird things going wrong and google not finding the answers for me :)
Anyway, I’m working on that site today and thought I’d check out how the Drupal community is integrating Twitter.. and there wasn’t much at all which is a shame.. (luckily for my wordpress sites, the wordpress community have a tonne of twitter plugins), anyway, thought I’d see what else Drupal has to offer in the area of social networking/bookmarking integration, and found the following..
Drupal Modules for Twitter:
This module provides twitter notification for new posts. Each user can use their own twitter account to post updates too, as well as have a custom format string.

Drupal Modules for Facebook:
This very simple module is ideal for a single-user, personal site. The fbstatus module fetches your current Facebook status, using an individualized RSS feed provided by Facebook, and provides it as a block that you can display on your site, without entanglement with the RSS aggregator.
Standard Drupal permissions apply, so you can control who sees your status.

Drupal Modules for Lifestreams:
Bring all your activity on the web into Drupal. Activity Stream builds a lifestream for you by aggregating your social activities all in one place. Whether it’s bookmarks on Del.icio.us and Ma.gnolia, pictures on Flickr, music on Last.fm, or posts on your blog, anything you create can be gathered into one easy to read stream. The module comes with support for a half dozen popular sites and support for any site that publishes an RSS or Atom feed. Developers can create integrations with any other site using a simple API.
Every item in your stream is a full Drupal node. This means they can be searched, promoted, commented on, and managed just like any other content in Drupal. The output is fully themeable and the default theme uses plenty of classes so you can use CSS to make sure everything fits in with your site.
Each third party site integration is a small Drupal module, so you can easily decide which ones you want to offer and which ones to leave out. Included in the download are modules for Del.icio.us, Digg, Flickr, Last.fm, Twitter, and any other site through a feed.
