I use this tweet...

http://twitter.com/descentworlduk

To catch tweets from several of our web contributors. The above shows that all the tweets have a shortened url which leads to nowhere.

I have check "feed title only" but it stills send the incorrect url, how do I stop this?

   Hey,

   I just looked into this and I think the issue is on the huitter.com side of things. When I look at the feed, the "read more" link resolved to an invalid tweet on twitter.com. We just shorten the link the feed gives us, we don't check it for validity.

   Might I suggest looking into a twitter search feed and running it through yahoo pipes? That is what most clients tend to do for feed tweets with this service.
