I added a prefs panel for Twitter support in the OPML Editor. This replaces step 3 in yesterday's instructions, you don't have to go looking for user.twitter.prefs in the object database, this panel takes care of that.
To get the panel, choose Update opml.root in the File menu.
Here's a link to the prefs panel. You must have the OPML Editor running on your system for that link to work.
The OPML Editor has a built-in web server for applications like this. Makes it easy to configure apps in a web browser.

"RSS was born in 1997 out of the confluence of Dave Winer's 'Really Simple Syndication' technology, used to push out blog updates, and Netscape's 'Rich Site Summary', which allowed users to create custom Netscape home pages with regularly updated data flows." - Tim O'Reilly.
