What’s up?
Welcome to my first proper post like? Yeh, I’m posting with some thing interesting, I guess.
Well it all started when I started twittering a whole lot more frequently and I was looking for a twitter client. Me and my friend:
Blind raver were using a client called Twitteroo. But the thing sucked! Ya, it was accessible and all that crap and shit, but It was hellishly slow at responding. The response time sucked!!!!!!!!!!!! like Sucked!!!!!!! Sucked!!!!!!!! and just Sucked!!!!!!!!!!!!!! till the day that I could not damn stand the crappy response time.
I looked at a couple of twitter clients like twhirl and spaz but they all required the adobe air engin wich lets face it, I’m not gonna install just forra twitter client! So, looking around today, looking on the msg plus live script database, I found a script called twitter4Live.
it can be found
here It’ll tell ya about interacting with conversations and typing commands to interact with twitter. Forget that, just install the script, and go to the script menu in MSG plus. choose the Twitter4Live script, then gota configure. Type in your user name, password, and all that good stuff. There is a box called (mins), I presume that this has gotta do with your friends timeline, and how many minutes it will update in. then, gota update twitter, type your message in, press enter, wait a second (litterally) until jaws says windows live messenger. Now, to check, view your twitter.
A note:
In my experience, it’s not a good idea to be signed in to twitter otherwise, It’ll not work. The reason according to my analysis is that this script logs in to twitter, and if your already logged in, it won’t work.
That’s all I’ve gotta say, feel free to comment and ask me questions.

I’ve heard of this script , but never used it. THX for the instructions. I don’t use windows live messenger anymore, otherwize I”d give it a try. I’m sure there’s some miranda dll somewhere. I’ll wait till miranda 0.8 goes final. I can stand twitteroo.

See Serrebi, It’s kind of strange, twitteroo is stable on some systems and it sucks on others. See like on my desktop upstairs, It’s kind of Ok. But on the laptop, it is fast at delivering my tweets from my friends timeline, but it is very unresponsive.
Guess people have to try it and see if it works to an acceptable degree.
