Twitter has recently announced their plans to launch a new platform for adding Twitter experience anywhere on the web, easier than currently possible today via the Twitter APIs. Your favorite websites will be able to recreate these twitter interactions providing a new layer of value for visitors without sending them to Twitter.com website.
The new frameworks are collectively called @anywhere. Twitter @anywhere will let web publishers display relevant tweets to their sites with simple javascript. With the @anywhere platform, Twitter content will be available more widely and readily throughout the Web, making tweets and feeds available outside of Twitter.com and of third-party Twitter applications.

With @anywhere service, everywhere you visit, you will find relevant up-to-date tweets, be able to follow anyone with a click and share what you’re finding and reading without leaving the site you’re visiting.
Twitter co-founder Evan Williams announced the new framework during a keynote speech at the South by Southwest Interactive Conference in Austin, Texas. Twitter did not provide a release date for the @anywhere framework. The initial participating sites for the @anywhere service will include Amazon, AdAge, Bing, Citysearch, Digg, eBay, The Huffington Post, Meebo, MSNBC.com, The New York Times, Salesforce.com, Yahoo!, and YouTube. With this service, you will be able to tweet about a video without leaving YouTube, discover new Twitter accounts while visiting the Yahoo! home page, etc..
