• create a read-and-write app on https://dev.twitter.com/ and save the OAuth credentials in a file named twitter_properties.json and structured like follows:

  {
      "consumer_key": "YOUR CONSUMER KEY HERE",
      "consumer_secret": "YOUR CONSUMER SECRET HERE",
      "access_token_key": "YOUR ACCESS TOKEN KEY HERE",

Run da app

to start the nodejs script which generates memorable passwords and tweets them, simply execute

node tweet_passwords.js

Thanks

... go out to Nathan Rajlich for providing the node-applescript module and to Code Poetry (i guess this is the real name), for providing an app which triggers Mac OS X's Password Assistant dialog
