The closest thing I use is the What are you doing now? on Facebook, which does the same thing--its the way Twitter should be. But I only use my Facebook account for IRL people. Luke Maciak said:

WIth a project name, maybe you can get included in Linux distros along the road and whatnot. If I still used Twitter, I would switch to Twimi. :) Awesome.

Also the focus is different - they actually display tweets from friends you follow. Twimi does not do that. @Fr3d: Fixed - I’m storing passwords in base64.

Also I noticed the Chrome thing. I need to check if the author of the plugin updated it yet to include Chrome. If not I might need to go digging in the code and fix it myself. :P @Fr3d: Duly noted.
