Twitter4j

Getting hit by the Twitter bug, decided to play around with the APIs.
The Java API called Twitter4j , which is a wrapper around the Twitter API is pretty good. Its as simple as calling an update method for updating your twitter status..

    • Try this out :

      String twitterID = "xxxx"; //UserName
      String twitterPassword = "xxxx"; //Password
      Twitter twitter = new Twitter(twitterID,twitterPassword);
      String latestStatus = "Checking"; //Status Message
      Status status = twitter.update(latestStatus); //Update
