Twitter announces @anywhere, bringing Twitter integration to any site

To kick off his keynote at SXSW, Evan Williams, Twitter's CEO, announced the @anywhere platform.
This platform will allow site owners to integrate Twitter information and features directly into their sites. For example, a blog with @anywhere integration would allow a user to hover over the blogger's name to pop up a Twitter box where the user could see if he/she was following the blogger, follow them if not, and even tweet the blogger directly from the site.
Additionally, the @anywhere platform can act as a login provider, similar to Facebook Connect.
This will be launched soon on a number of sites including; Bing, The New York Times, Amazon, Meebo, Youtube, Salesforce, Digg, Yahoo, etc.

Agreed...
and pretty soon, you'll need a Twit-ter or FB account to anything on the web it seems.
