A Simple Twitter Logger

[UPDATE! Look here for the OAuth version.]



Yes, using The Object Guy's Logging Framework it is incredibly easy to create a logger that will write to Twitter.

Here's a sample:

public class TwitterLogger : Logger
{  
  protected override bool DoLog(LogEntry aLogEntry)
  {
    // without this, you may receive a '417 Expectation Failed' error
    ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = false;

    using (WebClient webClient = new WebClient())
    {
       webClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("[YOUR USER NAME]", "[YOUR PASSWORD]");

       var nvc = new NameValueCollection();
       nvc["status"] = aLogEntry.Message;

       webClient.UploadValues("http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml", nvc);
    }
    return true;
  }
}

Remember that Twitter may limit your status updates to 150 per hour and a thousand or so per day.
