not really a technical issue but a question of design.

One for you, guys. For the profile pic, twitter delivers an url of type http://a0.twimg.com/profile_images/2596092158/afpecvf41m8f0juql78p_normal.png, if I want a bigger version of it, I need to change the "normal" at the end to "bigger". How do I do that? I'm sure there's an URI method for that.

Try it like this:

var url_normal = 'http://a0.twimg.com/profile_images/2596092158/afpecvf41m8f0juql78p_normal.png';
var url_bigger = url_normal.replace(/_normal(\.[a-z]{3,4})$/, '_bigger$1');
