[ANN] twrnip, a new web2.0 thing using Lua!

[Jorge <xxopxe@...>]

Did you have a free dyndns account? Or a noip? Then this is for you.

From the README:

# twrnip-post

A client for posting Dynamic IP addresses to twitter.

The typical place to install this is a home router using OpenWRT.


## What is twrnip?

Twrnip is a protocol for doing over twitter what you usually would do 
using a Dynamic DNS service: have your temporary IP address
available for all to see.

This service is half of the solution: it will tweet your IP address as 
soon as it changes. It will also delete the previous obsolete 
announcement, of course.

Then anyone (including yourself) can check the announcement and 
copy&paste the IP into a web browser, or stream them in using the 
twitter API and configure a DNS, or patch the hosts file, you get the idea.

The messages look as follows:

    #twrnip
    #homerouter
    179.25.7.166

The #twrnip at the beginning indicates that this is a twrnip message, 
then might come some additional tags (in case the user has several services)
and finally an IP address.

No, it won't publish port numbers, because that would cross network layers.
