Just a heads up. I don't think this is officially supported by any
means, but if you pass source=web in your REST call, the source will
return to the old web.
i.e.
$ curl -u username:password -d status=This is a test.
http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml
This is a test.

To anyone who is interested, you can follow the diverse opinions of
Twitter users on this change at my blog:

I trust that Twitter will close down that loophole pretty quickly, so
that we have an equal playing field for all apps, especially those who
choose not to exploit the loophole.

No doubt it will be closed.

Is this optional? Meaning, can one register an OAuth application and
still not have a custom from on the tweets originating from
that application?

That's probably true, but I don't believe in trying to game Twitter.
It's a very stupid strategy in the long run. If you want a Twitter
application that fits into the Twitter ecosystem and will be around
for a long time, the best strategy is to be a good and upstanding
neighbor of Twitter.

That makes no sense to me. It's not from the web, it came from an app using
the API.Why would you default it to from web if it didn't come from the
