Different Accounts for Tweety?  

To me, the most obvious use of Tweety is to allow a group of people on a single wave to tweet through a single Twitter account. But it's not clear to me that Tweety will allow one to use a different account for different waves. (My initial tests in the preview suggest not.) It would be far more useful and flexible if it could.

getting this robot  

Can someone tell me how to get this robot onto my wave account? I am new....also, how do I get a sandbox account? Anyone know?

refresh?  

isn't refreshing tweets, I have to make a whole new wave for it to update? :( hope that it gets fixed somehow.

HTML Characters  

Tweety does not display HTML Characters correctly. Original on Twitter: "It's nice when a bus is early... but not when it causes you to have a 2 hour layover ><" Tweety's Output: "It's nice when a bus is early... but not when it causes you to have a 2 hour layover &gt;&lt;"

Bot replaces entire blip text...  

Beware, that when adding this bot to a blip, it replaces the entire blip. It also keeps opening the twitter authentication page every time you load the wave, until you either authenticate or delete the widget & bot. It is not possible to display tweets without authenticating.
