Note: I have not tested this code on Twitter API v1.1

This is a twitter bot based on [Shabda Raaj's markovgen.py](http://agiliq.com/blog/2009/06/generating-pseudo-random-text-with-markov-chains-u/) and [the_shrinkbot](https://github.com/jiko/the_shrinkbot). Shout-outs to [Harry Schwartz](https://github.com/hrs), [Vivek Haldar](https://github.com/vivekhaldar), [widefidelity](https://twitter.com/widefidelity/status/266230134053425153), and [Shabda Raaj](http://agiliq.com/blog/author/shabda/).

Requires:

* Python 2.6 or later. Not tested with Python 3.

* [pip](http://www.pip-installer.org/en/latest/installing.html)

Once you have your environment setup, run:

	pip install -r requirements.txt

See init_twit.py for info on setting up your Twitter application.
