Btw - the article says I can follow my link sharing through twitter. Can't seem to get that to work, any ideas?

Yep I can't see how to get Twitter notifications either, or notes here in the FAQs. Maybe they got that part wrong?

Yes, that seems to be an error on their part. You can click "share" to share stories on socialmedian on to twitter, but we do not yet have the ability for you to get socialmedian updates tweet'd to you automatically. I do send several tweets per day with popular stories and discussions on socialmedian, but that's manual not automated.

Also, I don't really get that socialmedian is a "Twitter-like" online community?

Um, SocialMedian is in no way "Twitter-like". Completely different design, user-interface, target market, use intent, not to mention it's up every time I come by. There is, however, the equivalent of an SM fail whale: try editing one of your comments.
