+
+ The Twitter API is documented here:

+ Examples::

+ twitter = Twitter("hello@foo.com", "password123")
+
+ # Get the public timeline

+
+ # Get a particular friend's timeline
+ twitter.statuses.friends_timeline(id="billybob")

+ twitter.statuses.friends_timeline.billybob()
+
+ # Send a direct message
+ twitter.direct_messages.new(
+ user="billybob",
+ text="I think yer swell!")
+
+ Using the data returned::
+
+ Twitter API calls return decoded JSON. This is converted into
+ a bunch of Python lists, dicts, ints, and strings. For example,
+
+ x = twitter.statuses.public_timeline()
+
+ # The first 'tweet' in the timeline

+ # The screen name of the user who wrote the first 'tweet'
+ x[0]['user']['screen_name']
