blt shows you what your twitter friends are doing while you're working at the commandline, in Linux, BSD, OS X and Cygwin under Windows. In more detail, it's a perl script which integrates the checking of twitter into bash(1). Think of it like biff(1) for twitter. It should be considered alpha at present. blt is released under the GPLv3 with no warranty.
You should be able to install the latest version anywhere by typing "sudo cpan App::BLT". The icon used here is from http://flickr.com/photos/amagill/368648462 by Andrew Magill and is cc-by.
