Tweet From the Command Line 7

I'm a command line junkie. I crave the command-line like addicts crave heroin. Okay, maybe a little bit less.

In an effort to spend more time on the command-line, and less time in my web browser, I created a little utility that allows me to tweet from the prompt. I call it tweet.

It's going to make me more productive. So, now I won't have to feel bad about twitter's victory. It will make you more productive too.

You use it like this:

$ tweet "I'm going to walk my dog."

You download it like this:

$ sudo gem install giraffesoft-tweet

You fork it from here.

See the README for the config file syntax.

That is all.

Okay Twitter, You Win. 1

For the longest time, I've been telling myself that I'm going to stop using twitter. It's a waste of time, and I was just trying it out anyways.

Well, something keeps drawing me back to it. I keep tweeting. So, I've given in.

I actually spent some time styling my twitter page to look giraffesoftish. I even put the badge on my blog (to your right, underneath github).

Let this blog post serve as the (reluctant) official notice that I am on twitter. Follow me here.
