Thanks for the description, very useful! A couple of suggestions…
Maybe you should say a sentence or two more about setting up the application at Twitter, which you skip over. That form is a little baffling if you don’t know much about OAuth, so it would be useful to say something like “Set the ‘Application Type’ to ‘Client’ and ‘Default Access Type’ to ‘Read & Write’.”
It would also be useful to know how to test for an error after posting the status. For the PHP version, maybe something like:
$response = $connection->post('statuses/update', array('status' => "Hello Twitter OAuth!"));
if ($connection->lastStatusCode() != 200) {
print $response->error;
}
Although lastStatusCode() appears not to be working properly at the moment…
