After spending 2 days wrestling with urllib2 and status updates, I couldn’t figure out what was wrong. It just wouldn’t post a tweet. Fortunately, on google code there’s a library for interfacing with twitter that makes it pretty easy. I quite like the idea of a Terminal client for twitter, so I’ll probably finish writing Twitterminal, but I won’t be half as proud of it as if I’d managed to get it working with urllib2. Oh well.

On a sidenote, Textmate is literally awesome. I’ve done a lot of customising it in the last day and the bundles are actually encouraging me to document my code (probably too) fully.
