Twitter is a great way to interact with friends, family, and as a Youtuber, subscribers. When I'm recording or running around on my server, I wanted a way to keep up with tweets, hashtags I like, and also allow the ability to tweet from the Minecraft chat box.
As a .NET developer in my "real life" job, making the jump back to Java wasn't hard, and integrating with twitter4j was cake. I've only spent an hour or 2 on this, and it's just a skeleton of what its going to be - need to refactor, recode, and come up with more features - but I wanted to have a sort of "devlog" to share with you guys, and hopefully gather up some interest in the project.
