Testing @anywhere and FB Like

This is a test post to see if @anywhere and Facebook Like button plugins work. Both of these were installed via one-click plugins discovered in the wordpress admin panel. In the case of Twitter, I had to register for an API key — a few extra clicks.

If this works, you should be able to hover over my twitter name — now @gregcohn by the way — and see a hovercard. You should also see a Like button at the bottom of the post (full post), along with pictures of any friends who’ve liked it.

UPDATE: After trying 2 different twitter plugins, I’m still getting an error on the hovercards (“this does not appear to be a valid account”). No time to troubleshoot — any ideas welcome. In the meantime, a few more to try: @barackobama @ev @chucknorris_ @cnnbrk
