add Gittip button to Twitter pages #5

Gittip supports pledging tips to Twitter accounts as well as GitHub accounts, and in the future I expect more will be added (Facebook, YouTube, etc.). Does it make sense to use a single browser extension to add buttons to those sites as well?

I think it makes sense to use a single extension to add a gittip button to any page that can be directly associated with a gittip recipient.

I will register a Twitter account and add this functionality.

However, we will need a way to automatically generate a widget based on identity provider and username (so we can look up a user based on their twitter identity. I've opened https://github.com/whit537/www.gittip.com/issues/400 for this issue.
