Twittia
=======

Twittia is a slim Twitter client for OS X written in mostly JavaScript.
It doesn't implement much of Twitters functionality, only the things **I**
care for. Therefore it is **small** and **fast** and looks good
by doing so. _"Keep it simple, stupid!"_ Is the mantra, therefore there
will not by much more functionality as it is now. But you're welcome to
fork and extend it.

Nice to know
------------

There was a original Twittia 1 which was written in Ruby-Cocoa, it was
quite ok back then, but the code was a mess. And then along came
Tweetie and I lost the desire to write my own Twitter client, because
it was so much further then twittia and looked nicer and so on.

But now Tweetie wasn't update for a really long time, and I really
wanted to see retweets in my stream so I decided to rip out the look
from Twittia 1 and implement it in a new much slimmer version.

And because Twitter offers a JSON API and Twittias rendering Engine is
just a simple WebKit WebView I implemented the core functionality in
JavaScript and am very happy with it.
