@TVFlash cheers, it works pretty well. However it only grabs the 20 latest tweets. I know that a lot of people would appreciate it if it grabbed all the tweets. Perhaps a duplication check and skip those that it has already grabbed? Assuming one outputs using *nix.

Hey this is not returning any tweets. I assume you stopped updating the project?

what's the content of raw_input() ,Please?
