Twitter Follow ButtonGood news for us developers. Twitter added a new “Follow” button so people can one-click and follow you without leaving your website. It even pops a couple of tweets and some information about your profile!

“When you follow interesting accounts on Twitter, it’s easy to stay connected with what’s most meaningful to you. Today we’re excited to launch the Follow Button, a new way to discover and instantly follow Twitter accounts directly from the websites you visit everyday.” said Brian Ellin, Twitter.com.

I am quite sure this will totally help increase the followers of said webmasters and companies. No hassles, a very small snippet of code and everyone is happy.
