a twitter module

would allow you to get tweet bodies/user names
could possibly allow you to tweet from ingame with proper authentication/if i can find an api twitter made similar to how pastebin does it
get recent tweets

other things i cant think of

I think the limitation is the fact that the HttpService doesn't currently allow for PUT and DELETE HTTP methods. Plus you can't send headers. And so it might be difficult to make it fully functional. But you might be able to read tweets and such from public accounts!

yeah you can read tweets.
i sent a get request to my home page, and after using some string patterns, i got the tweet body with username. not finished yet cause i tried with other public accounts and it returned nil (ROBLOX's twitter)

im getting tweets by going through html, cause im not sure of any other way
i also made one that gets the body directly from the tweet link, but sometimes returns a messed up message that is understandable, but some characters replaced by an ASCII equivalent

and im hoping you can send tweets ingame similar to how pastebin does it. if you google pastebin api, it shows apis that let you create pastebins, get pastebin bodies, etc

use my AdvancedHTTP module to send headers. I can update to let you send PUT and DELETE requests as well
