Automated Tweets announcing articles should mention authors #155

I'm not quite sure how to do this. I was wondering about hijacking the author field in the rss feed (https://github.com/pivotal/blog/issues/139) but I'm not sure that's the best approach.

The author or authors are listed in the header of the document. Just pull it from there (and from there you can lookup the Twitter handles as well).

It means we'll need to make another app that watches the blog and posts to Twitter? Or is there a more graceful way to integrate with Hugo?

Would be great to use something like IFTTT to keep maintenance overhead low.

For example, automated Tweet currently look like this when it would be nice if they looked more like this.

Not sure you can do this with IFTTT ... I rather doubt it.
