Hi,

it's amazing, that twitter went so far with so bad (polling)
technology compared to XMPP (pubsub). At one time theiy claimed to
drop XMPP because of load. Not realizing, that the mindless polling is
the real problem.

After Twitter dropped XMPP support I wrote a Twitter - XMPP gateway.
Runs faceless on my PC (mono/.NET) and lets me twitter in GTalk as
before:
