Short for Tweet Serial: An Asus w520-gU based Twitter client

OpenWRT runs python off of a USB thumb drive. The script fetches the 20 most recent tweets from the people I follow and displays them using a Sparkfun serial based LCD.

Many thanks to Jeff at mightyohm.com for his excellent OpenWRT installation instructions!
