Tweetbacks were "introduced" by Rachel Cunliffe:

Bloggers will start to add "Tweetbacks" to their blog posts. The simplest version will show the number of people who have tweeted this post (including all reverse engineered tinyurls).

Options will include:

   * Showing what tweeters are saying about the post
   * Replies to those tweets from others
   * Showing who is tweeting the post
   * Showing the tweeters’ avatars
   * Ordering tweeters by Twitter influence
   * Mixing tweets in with comments, rather than displaying them separately

This plugin

This plugin creates much of the functionality above. Please have a look at the installation page to get some more help on the plugin, its not hard to use at all.

There is are two similar plugins, a Javascript-based by Dan Zarella and another one by Joost de Valk. All three of them are compared (in german, sorry) here. If you don't like our plugin, feel free to give those a try. And, of course, tell us why you didn't like ours, we are still improving it. :)
