Chromed Bird is an open source Chromium extension that allows you to follow your Twitter account using Google Chrome.

*********** ATTENTION ***********
As the official Google Chrome extensions gallery is open I’ll STOP updating this website.
Please click here to download Chromed Bird.

I’d like to say thanks to all you guys from chromeextensions.org for all your hard work. But now with the official gallery available there seem to be no point in keep updating multiple websites.
