Wow, another cool idea introduced at Chirp (was it?). Honestly, I'd
just love a free (beer) geocoding service that didn't force me to use
google maps.
Twitter has helped me make $10 so far (woohoo!); perhaps as I make more
with it I'll actually be able to afford going to Chirp! 8-)))

Ideally, I think an OAuth app must register a namespace, or subscribe

bottom line: I don't think you will find a client that will honor a NL.
you might be able to get a few nbsp;s in to emphasize your URL by
separating it from your text, but it's iffy and (at six chars for a
single blank space) expensive.

I actually haven't done this in PHP, only in bash. The thing about
stream is that you need something that returns data without buffering
it. I'm sure there's a way to do this in PHP, but I haven't tried it yet.
