WARNING
=======
This script is a total hack! The following issues exist:
- you don't have any browsing privacy anymore!!!
- you need to log in to Twitter (once per session)
- the official Twitter API is not used, it can break any day
This script updates your twitter.com status with a message
"Browsing [document.title]" whenever you load a web page.
Be sure to set the @exclude rules for sites you don't want
anyone to know you're browsing, or remember the famous words
by Scott McNealy: "You have zero privacy anyway, Get over it."
Another good idea is to only white-list sites you *want* to
get mentioned on Twitter, using the @include list.
