To my delight, after trying out the Twitter API, I found that it only took a few minutes to master. For my purposes, posting updates involves a single curl statement. Wrapping that sucker up in some lightweight perl code couldn’t be easier. In fact, all I had to do was add a line or two to my existing script that posts in a similar way to Pachube.
I’ve added a link on the right to my house’s twitter feed. Not the worst way to spend 10 minutes, that’s for sure.
