I'm trying to post a message on Twitter using this method:

Is libcurl the right thing to be using? and if so how could i do it?

Cheers

Yeah you can do it with libcurl. Not sure if the Twitter API needs SSL, if so, you'll need libcurlssl.mod.

Using cURL is fairly straight forward. You basically create your cURL object, configure it and then do your request. Brucey has included lots of examples on how to do it. Go check them out.
