@MesuvaWebDev Got your email. Looks cool! Will try to play with it tonight/tomorrow and get back to you. Cheers!
@rogerjohansson you could just write CSS, paste it into a .scss file, & do concatenation + minification. SCSS can be exactly the same as CSS
@stevenspriggs @brad_frost Here’s the collection of tips I’ve gathered for Sublime Text 2: tweets.ajdwv.com/?s=sublime

@MesuvaWebDev LMK if you make a package. You could probably make some $ in the marketplace. I’d be happy to help test.
@MesuvaWebDev Ya, Tweetcrete uses TOAuth, but looks like v1. I submitted a support request, have not heard back. Not sure if it’ll go 2 v1.1
@MesuvaWebDev Have you thought about how you’ll pull in tweets w/ C5 after March 5th? goo.gl/wXY1X v1 API will cease to exist.
I took a quick glance at Adobe Brackets, but some things (like native live reload) mentioned in this vid look cool: buff.ly/10N2DD1

@elektronaut Ah, read up a bit more about those API changes. Yikes! Will research. Thanks for making LiveTwitter though, very nice plugin.
