This Extension is out of date and does not work. Sorry for any inconvenience. Blame Twiiter and OAuth.
This Extension will place your Twitter feed in a bar in Safari.
The first time you run it, Twitter will want your credentials. The extension doesn’t process these, it goes straight to Twitter.

Are you going to fix this anytime soon? Really cool extension that I’d love to use.
error 401, unauthorized… can’t fix this.
too bad, looked amazing.
It was a Great little app when it worked Julian; I used it 24/7. i would have paid for it too, but now its useless to most.
Just wondering if you’ve made any progress with the OAuth issue. Love this extension and miss it.
same here, miss it and hope for a new release soon. tried rockmelt-browser and i think, tweetbar does a better job
Ever since I entered the incorrect credentials, I can’t get this thing to work. I’ve logged in/out of Twitter.com; installed, deleted, re-installed; activated, deactivated All I get is Error: 401, Unauthorized.

When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Many thanks!
I installed Tweet Bar today but only get the 401, despite manually logging in to Twitter in Safari.
I am unsure how Tweet Bar is supposed to log you in, if you don’t give it those details (e.g. in the Prefs).
Trying to disable Tweet Bar meanwhile then crashed Safari (OSX latest). Restarting Safari automatically relogged me into Twitter on that tab, but Tweet Bar still says 401.
Is this project still current?
It’s not current unfortunately. Twitters OAuth is basically impossible to implement through JS without running my own server to process all calls to the API. Sorry.
Julian,
Can you tell Apple (probably on developer.apple.com) to remove TweetBar from the Safari Extensions Gallery? It’s misleading as it is now.
As for the OAuth issue: OAuth itself can be done in JS, but that would mean exposing the API consumer key and secret inside the plugin. Not sure if this is a good idea. I’ll look into it.
