Twitter from TextMate

I'm a big fan of Twitter, and not just because I am on the top 100 Twitter user list (though that doesn't hurt). It is just plain old fun. I also enjoy the heck out of TextMate, which is also fun to use, though in a different way. Twitter and TextMate are two great tastes that, one would imagine, taste great together. Enter Muffin Research Labs (I never thought I would be writing that) with a new Twitter bundle for TextMate.

Bundles, you'll recall, are sets of files which extend TextMate's functionality. As you might have guessed the Twitter bundle allows one to Twitter from within TextMate. Once you have the Twitter bundle installed you simply select some text, hit ALT T, and off it posts to Twitter. Keep in mind that this bundle is a little rough around the edges, and it requires that you have PHP installed on your Mac.

So, what are you doing?

Colin, by my count we've mentioned, or posted about, Twitter 10 times. And we haven't mentioned in since the 16th of the month, so you had 3 full days of no Twitter related news to enjoy.

When is TUAW changing its name to TUTW? Could we *please* have a day where there isn't a post about Twitter? Please?

Albright: The MS keyboard I'm using has the Option key mapped to the Windows key (which is apparently now called the "start" key!) I'm going start referring to key combos like "Alt-Start-M". ;-)

Albright, I think you need to switch to decaf.
