Sample Cover Letter Dental Hygiene
Twitter is a fantastic service but it remains a bit 'misunderstood by most. Services like Facebook are the masters and perhaps with good reason. This does not mean that Twitter should be neglected or abandoned. Twitter has certainly all the capability that offers us instead of facebook but for that perhaps should be appreciated. Twitter does one thing and does it very well: it allows users to write short phrases (twit). Nothing else, just that. Other users are free to decide whether to follow your twit or not, and you can do the same with others.
To come to the topic of my post, what I have always been "annoyed" before I found the solution described here, which was to update my twitter status had access to the site or use a browser programs more or less beautiful and more or less complete. What I "bother" the making was a complex operation that had to do something very simple: the update status. My goal was to have a tool that would allow me to update the status and nothing else and do it as fast as possible (to write one sentence of few words do not have to open the browser and log on to the site otherwise you lose "taste" of the twit).
Finally, thanks to two Web sites are able to reach my goal. The two sites are

First I need for Ubuntu and the second for Windows XP.
The operation of both is very simple: create a file, such as twitter, and put it in a folder accessible (under c: \\ windows folder or the user). Inside the file there are a few lines of code. To use it, just type the command in the Run window: twitter "new status" and he thinks of everything.
Ubuntu Technical part
Open the terminal window. In your user folder create a file named with the command twitter twitter
pico
inside write the following code (with some corrections)
# / bin / bash
curl-u username: password-d status = "$ 1" http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml> / dev / null
Save the file with CTRL + O and exit pico by pressing CTRL + X. From
execute permissions to the file you just created with
chown u + rx twitter
Update: if curl is not installed by default in your distribution, install it with sudo apt-get install curl
To try if it works from the command
. / twitter "write what you want"
also works out of the window run in graphics mode. To open press ALT + F2. Technical part
Windows XP
phalacee.com Go to the site I wrote above and download twitter CLI. Follow the instructions written inside the zip file.
To write twit enough to open the Run dialog (Windows + R) and write for example twitter "Hello World".
