Twitter has released a new set of developer tools that will allow bloggers to embed fully-functional Tweets on the Web. According to the developer description, the new feature - called Web Intents - will "make it possible for users to interact with Twitter content in the context of your site, without leaving the page or having to authorize a new app just for the interaction."
The new tool is more effective then Blackbird Pie (allow for embedding tweets, which was considered lifeless and didn't provide interactivity) because it allows users to interact with the embedded Tweet as if they were on Twitter's website itself, even offering a mini-profile feature, similar to the Hovercard.
