00002   Update: 21-06-2010
00003   The basic authentication service for twitter is going down at the end of the week.
00004   To continue using that program, the code has been updated to use http://supertweet.net which acts as an API proxy.
00005   Simply visit the website to setup your twitter account for this API.
