Hi, Guys

I have been a proud owner of the n900 for almost 2 years now, unfortunately, I haven't contributed anything to the community.

Although my lack of expertise in developing software, I thought I would submit myself to the process and be part of the maemo community.

So, I found one of my old Twitter for Conky Python scripts, removed the Conky part, and n900 Twitter was born.

It's a command-line twitter client

NOTE:
1. You'll need the Tweepy library. code.google.com/p/tweepy/
2. You'll need python-setuptools to install tweepy
Code:
 ~ $ root
    Nokia-N900: apt-get install python-setuptools

3. You'll need to register an app at dev.twitter.com/apps/new

4. Edit the script in and fill where it says "YOURS"
Code:
CONSUMER_KEY = 'YOURS'
CONSUMER_SECRET = 'YOURS'
ACCESS_KEY = 'YOURS'
ACCESS_SECRET = 'YOURS'
5. use Cmd Shortcuts to launch it

I know it's not revolutionary...this is just my simple way of contributing to a community that gave me much...much more.
