Twitter addicts rejoice! The Twitter Opera widget gives you an easy way to tweet and check your twitter feed without opening a browser.

After some time in the works, Opera Widgets has finally released Twiget - the Twitter Widget.

Twiget makes it a snap to tweet and stay up to date with your Twitter feed. A simple interface gives you all the functionality you need for your daily Twittering right at your fingertips, without having to start or run a browser. (Since new versions of Opera treat widgets like standalone applications).

Twiget allows you to:

• Quickly enter tweets
• Show new tweets at a configurable interval
• Adjust the number of tweets viewed from 40 to 200
• See your direct messages, and messages @ you
• Favorite, retweet, or reply to tweets

Update:
Twiget has been recently updated to version 4.3! There are many new features and bugfixes including:

• Reduced CPU usage and faster operation
• Support for twitpic images inline
• Delete buttons for tweets
• Character counter
• URL shortener integration (ie. with bit.ly)
• Search

Even with all of those improvements, our developers are still working hard to make it even better!

Grab it now and give it a try! It's totally free, of course!
