First of all, I'd love to take credit for the code in this PowerPack, but very little of it is mine - just a few tweaks here and there of other people's code who kindly shared it on the web.
I started putting this together a while back and then shortly after James O'Neill released some PowerShell functions for Twitter (http://blogs.technet.com/jamesone/archive/2009/02/16/how-to-drive-twitter-or-other-web-tools-with-powershell.aspx) which covered pretty much most of what I wanted to do with this initially. Since it already existed I thought I would save time by using them, which he was more than happy for me to do.
Other helpful resources I have used are:
Steve Murawski - http://www.mindofroot.com/powershell-twitterers/
Jeffrey Hicks - http://blog.sapien.com/index.php/2009/02/05/get-tweetertagged-user/
Scott Herold - http://www.vmguru.com/index.php/articles-mainmenu-62/scripting/76-powergui-twitter-list-action
This is the initial release. I'd be interested in any feedback, in particular anyone wishing to collaborate and take this further would be most welcome. Leave a comment here or contact me via my blog at http://jonathanmedd.net
Hope you find it useful
