Hi all,

A colleague of mine wrote a little function to send messages to twitter:

update <- function(status){
method <- "http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml?status="
encoded_status <- URLencode(status)
request <- paste(method,encoded_status,sep = "")
postForm(request,.opts = opts)
}

I don't twitter, but I wrote an R package
to read and write tweets from the R command
line for twitter and laconi.ca.

I will submit it soon, but if anyone is interested
contact me off-list.

Best,
Tobias
