Project Update
Worked on having status updates meet the Twitter Display Guidelines. Have almost everything ship shape. Ran into a small snag when the python-twitter library didn't support the display_url attribute for the urls entity... that was a quick fix to add.
A larger fix required basically copying the Url class and creating a Media class that can handle media entities. I think it's pretty close, but I'm not 100% sure it returns a dictionary object if there isn't a media entity for a tweet. Not a big deal with a quick if statement to make sure the status object has a media attribute.
Chain Update
I'm really starting to realize how fun it is to develop web applications. I could totally do this for 8-17 hours a day ;-). Even though my commitment for this project is 2 hours a day, I've found myself on more than one occasion working on it for 3-3.5 hours a day. The whole chain method has somewhat surprisingly been a great motivator.
Party On!
