Twitter Cross - Posting.
Add twitter cross-posting buttons. This would allow schmownce users to use the service as something comparable to twitpic/twinkle, and would perhaps drag in users from twitter too?
Pressing the post to twitter button would take the URL of the public note, shorten it using tinyurl or a similar service, then paste that link into another input box, in a lightbox-style input div that appears above the page.
You can then add details until your character limit is reached. Would be a cool little side-feature.

Inappropriate?Cool! Can you post anybody's post, or just your own?
Save twitter credentials in your profile, or enter them in the modal?
I’m inspired too

Inappropriate?This is just an idea, but i think it would be cool. You would turn on and store your twitter credentials in the settings page.
And you could post anybody's notes, anything you find interesting really!
I’m confident

Inappropriate?I'm not sure, it's hard to do short to the point messages from schmownce notes because they have no titles, so there are a few ways it could be done:
1. The naked link, with a description added by the user, or not. People clicking through will see that it is a schmownce public note, and who the user is.
Format:
"http://tinyurl.com/jsi2 - Check this out, found an awesome image yesterday, what a beautiful view"
I think this is the best implimentation because it isn't too spammy.

2. The ultimate cross posting/spam way:
format:
"A *note/link/file/event* from *Daniel M* on schmownce: http://tinyurl.com/2jur"
This is okay, but might be really annoying to see in a twitter timeline, and might annoy twitter users, and get some people blocked.
3. The 'Via' Route.
The user types a description out and schmownce appends the link and the string "(Via Schmownce)" to the END of the users added blurb. Of course the blurb's character limit would have to reflect 140 characters MINUS the link's length and the advertising string.
format:
"Check out this awesome video of Metallica! - http://tinyurl.com/jme8 (Via Schmownce)"
or even :
"Check out this awesome video of Metallica! - http://tinyurl.com/jme8 (Via *Daniel M* on Schmownce)
This is a nice compromise, but i still think number one is ideal.
(Where all information in stars is dynamically replaced depending on the note type/username).
I’m thoughtful

Inappropriate?Sounds great. I've added it to our ticket system - we'll try to crack this open this week. I think it's a great feature to have.
Thanks!
I’m thankful
