I found a great service called ScheduledTweets that works perfectly with Cronless–a scheduling service for your Twitter account.
Some info from the site:
—————
ScheduledTweets is built with PHP, uses MySQL to store the data & its interface is fully Ajaxed.
It enables you to define time-intervals which your tweets will be sent every x minutes. You can enter unlimited tweets, drag’n drop your tweets to change the order they will be sent.
Also, URL shortening service TinyURL is integrated for shorter tweets.
ScheduledTweets comes with a web-based friendly installer that helps you define database & Twitter information easily.
Why Use ScheduledTweets?
Twitter is both an instant messaging & a micro-blogging platform. You will probably not schedule your personal tweets (I won’t, as it clearly becomes meaningless) but if you are regularly sharing stuff on a subject, then it has the same benefit as scheduling a post on a blog.
Installation couldn’t be simpler:
- Create a MySQL database & user
- After downloading it, unzip the files to a folder & upload them to your hosting account
- Run http://www.yourdomainname.com/scheduled-tweets-url/index.php
- Define the MySQL database information you created in the first step. Also define your Twitter info and desired ScheduledTweets admin info
- Click install
- Setup a cron job to http://www.yourdomainname.com/inc/functions.php?getAction=cronTweet (the interval must be lower than your smallest interval defined in ScheduledTweets)
- Click “Start ScheduledTweets” button at the top menu
- That’s it

I personally recommend using Cronless’ free cron jobs to schedule those tweets!
