So the Twitter API changed and authentication no longer works in the same way. As a result, if you use Twhirl, you can't post to Twitter. If you are cross posting to Twitter from Laconica, it will still work. The symptom is that if you change your credentials for Twitter (Settings->Twitter) or if you are entering your Twitters creds for the first time, it will appear as if you are not giving the correct password.
A change in the Twitter API broke Laconica and Twhirl last night. Here's a quick way to get the issue fixed in Laconica before the updates are available. Nothing to do for Twhirl but wait.
