Worked surprisingly well in NetSurf, thanks! Was using Linux though so
switched to more feature rich browser later. Wouldn't it be nice if we
had a Twitter client for RISC OS? It's probably not that hard, given 
there's one for the C64!
OTOH when I was looking for something remotely useful to do on "the net" 
with my A4000 I discovered tweetymail.com (the name is a bit of a give away).
Just set up your account and use your email client to tweet/retweet, fetch 
latest, follow/unfollow and more. Basic use is free or upgrade to "full" 
account. Never felt the need fo that myself but who knows?
