Add a Twitter share link that validates
I found that my page wouldn’t validate at W3C Validator because of a Twitter button.
Here is a very easy way to make a Twitter button that does validate in Textpattern.
Make a form and paste in:
<p><a href="http://twitter.com/share?url=<txp:permlink />" class="twitter-share-button">Tweet</a><script type="text/javascript" src="http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js"></script></p>
Then put:
<txp:output_form form="twitter" />
Wherever you want the button to appear.
The button opens a Tweet window with the page title and url already in place.

It might worth to implement Twitter embedding API, too — it requires URL quoting only for a usen, like in http://savas.palubinskas.lt (currently on top of the page). I have made it following http://blog.posterous.com/introducing-embeddable-tweets (and an example on http://www.brownday.me/embeddable-tweets-now-on-posterous).
