Continuing my list of RSS feeds, now it's a list of more than 60 Twitters of free/libre open source software community. Aside of software and distro projects, this includes also organizations, companies, computer vendors, desktop environments, conferences, and programming languages. I even list Twitters of BSDs and several other free OSes here. Please be aware that this long list is small, there are still so many other important projects not listed here (not to mention, several of them don't have Twitters) so please discover them yourself. I hope you can find the one you love and follow their information updates. Go for your journey!

Twidge is a terminal client for microblogging sites such as Twitter and identi.ca.

Twidge is a full command-line client. It is designed to be useful when you’re sitting at a shell prompt. It produces output in well-formed and easily-parsed ways, and has various features for working with piped data.

There are other command line tools for twitter which are also available, but most of them are not updated for the changes in twitter security settings.
