Inappropriate?How many months it will be down? Doesn't twitter use XMPP? How can I do to set up my jabber account to send tweets?
I’m impatient

Hello. Twitter IM has been down since May 2008 and there's no announced timeline as to when it will be brought back.
They do have an XMPP feed but it contains the full public timeline and that feed only goes to a handful of third-party services (details in this blogpost).
Since Twitter IM has been down, I've been relying on a couple of third-party services to send updates to Twitter from IM. I use both http://excla.im and http://ping.fm and both work very well (they post to Twitter from my G.Chat account almost instantaneously). However, since they're third-party services, this means you're entrusting your Twitter password to a third-party.
