Sorry to everyone who is still using it, but BeTwittered will be going offline on March 20, 2010.
Sorry to take it down, it was a very fun project and it’s was really great getting feedback and hearing from people who use it.
Robert
p.s. Versions of of Betwittered for Status.net/Identi.ca are staying up 
if anyone has issues with the gadget, or questions or anything… im on twitter @mattapperson… I check it all day long and will do my best to fix/enhance in any and all ways that I can!
I am so sorry to hear this. You were my link to the Twitter world throughout the day. Thank you for the wonderful tool you provided.
Matt, I will definitely check it out!

This is so bad news for Chinese Twitter T_T
d_b to GFW!
oh,it is not a good news.
anyway , thanks a lot of betwittered, as it is the main entry for me to touch twitter in china.
Thanks Matt, I was almost frustrated that I can’t get breaking news from online newspapers I subscribed to. Now you revived my twitter life
THANKS a bunch savior.
Here’s a question: If BeTwittered has now been taken down, how comes the Identica (and others?) alternatives are still allowed to run? Is it specifically something against Twitter? Could higher volume of traffic be the answer?
I was using this on igoogle and really liked it.Now i’m using chromed bird on Google Chrome.
Robert, thanks for the great gadget. Sorry to read its going offline. Matt, thank you as well. Your now om my igoogle.
Betwittered was great, sad to see it go. I am trying Anyscreen from the above comments, can’t say that I like the bold blue bars, but seems to be good.
@schenck You can choose themes from the settings menu
Looks like Anyscreen has run out of bandwidth. I guess that explains why this project could not be continued. Far too popular.
Sorry guys, but the reason AnyScreen is gone, is my server got hacked, and those files deleted. I have simply not had the time to re-build it as paying jobs have had to take priority. Again, I am very sorry
Betwittered for twitter is not back, but Betwittered for a few other services is still up. There is Betwittered-Identica and Betiwittered-TwitArmy and BeTwittered-FLOSS.pro. Those are Twitter-like services running on http://status.net services.
A small rant: The status.net implementations are not big like twitter, but better in the sense that they are separate “islands” of messaging that can connect to each other, just like email services do. That means that as users of the services we aren’t dependent on any one, or locked in because our friends are on just one. An identi.ca user can chat with a Twit-Army user, again, like email where a gmail user can communicate with a hotmail user.
Dont assume, though, that I’ve abandoned twitter because of this, I just couldn’t afford to keep a Betwittered server running to handle 30-50 thousand users a day. It had started as just a hobby for my own use!
