The key to getting this to work is making sure that GEM_HOME is set to
somewhere you have write access too:
Here is it failing:
$ gem install twurl
ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
You don't have write permissions into the /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8 directory.

You should be able to install gems to your local user folder by
running 'gem install'. The only other thing you would then need to do,
as @epc says, is to add twurl either to you path variable or as an
alias to it's actual location.
Best,
Matt

I know nothing about Ruby, however gem install twurl appears to
install it into ~/.gem/ruby/1.8/bin on OS X. You then need to put
that directory in your shell’s path variable.
