It can also embed it as a trackback or pingback.

Installation:

Unpack and upload it to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.

Here are some key features of "Twitter Mentions as Comments":

· Option to automatically exclude ReTweets
· Option to store tweets as trackbacks/pingbacks
· Option to specify which posts to check (e.g., 10 most recent posts, all posts, front page only)
· Smart Caching of Tweets and user data - retrieves only what it needs to save on API calls and server load
· Searches for Tweets linking to your blog posts, regardless of the URL shortener used (using Twitter's Search API)
