/*
  Wifi Twitter Client with Strings
 
 This sketch connects to Twitter using using an Arduino WiFi shield. 
 It parses the XML returned, and looks for <text>this is a tweet</text>
 
 This example is written for a network using WPA encryption. For 
 WEP or WPA, change the Wifi.begin() call accordingly.
 
 This example uses the String library, which is part of the Arduino core from
 version 0019.  
 
 Circuit:
 * WiFi shield attached to pins 10, 11, 12, 13
