C++ Program to tweet

It's very interesting to play with C++ and if it is in GNU/Linux, lots of tools like 'wget', 'grep',etc. are there to help us in time. Here is a simple C++ snippet which tweets directly to your time line. Feel free to add more features and would be great if you could share it with me too :)
