Bug: RT will not copy anything in a tweet past a "

In other words, if you RT a tweet with quotemarks in it, nothing past the first quotemark will be RT'd.

A Minimize button would be a big advantage.

URL shortener.

Go to http://is.gd and save their bookmarklet. Give it a Nickname of is.

Now, when you're on a page and want to tweet it with a short URL, hit:

F2
type is {Enter}
Ctrl-C
BackSpace (if you want to see the original article)

Ctrl-V to paste the shortened URL into Twitter Opera Widget.

HTH.

, you can send DMs manually by typing "d <username> <message>".

nice, i need the code for my website

Oh, I've just remembered something else: would it be possible to enable the widget to send Direct Messages without the need of clicking on the "DM" link? Just now I wanted to message someone who hadn't updated recently...

By guedesav , # May 7, 2009 2:04:07 AM

, RT is supported, the rightmost "link" under each tweet.

By hzr , # May 6, 2009 6:17:01 PM

in a future version, would it be possible to RT our updates?

thanks

By tranced , # May 6, 2009 4:59:27 AM

, yes, it uses HTTPS. :-)

, yea, that's on the todo list.

, thanks!

Maybe the widget works different, but due to recent Twitter leaks: Does the widget communicate with Twitter.com via HTTPS?

By HomiSite , # May 3, 2009 9:21:53 PM

Widget could allow to follow users

By japeri , # May 2, 2009 6:27:55 PM

This is perhaps one of the best Twitter applications I've ever used. Thank you so much for it!

, unfortunately, I don't think the error console is available on Archos. I also don't have the device to be able to look in to the problem currently, but will look into it one way or another.

, thanks, glad you like it.

Thanks for the suggestions. Both of are things I've though about, and they will be in a future version.

This is an awesome widget, very functional, works very nicely as well. Compliments done, let's go to the requests:

- I wonder if there's anyway to include a profile viewing tab directly inside the widget, instead of directing it to the browser.
- In the same vein, a follower/following list would be quite good, specially if it had follow/unfollow functionality.

I think that's all. Anyway, thanks for this lovely widget. =D

Anyone got this to work on the Archos 605? Every tab I go to it say, "Opps, something went wrong. Try again later. (check console error)". Where do I go to check that??

By fsjon , # Apr 27, 2009 11:16:10 AM

: it worked pretty fine here, thanks a lot.

By lockheart87 , # Apr 26, 2009 10:14:43 PM

, a hackish way to do that would be to use the content blocker in the browser, and block all images from "http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_images/*". That applies to the widget too.

, I'll look into it.

, thanks! :-)

By hzr , # Apr 25, 2009 11:53:32 AM

is there a way to hide images for slower connections?

By lockheart87 , # Apr 25, 2009 2:54:05 AM

Found a bug ... Username is case sensitive ... you can login without casesensetivity but you cant delete your own messages ... this is maybee a twitterbug ...

Nice widget
