I like it. Such a slick looking Tk app is surprising. I’m used to them all looking very bland. Sending a new message, however, doesn’t seem to be reflected in the UI, even though the message has sent. If that’s a known bug, you should consider it a big one.
Also, instead of cycling through the timelines, have you considered just having two flags to include friend and public timelines? As is, you can’t see both at once, which would be a nice feature.

Calvin, I’m aware of the responsiveness problem. I’m going to add a threaded layer to access twitter services.
For the different timelines, I’ll think about your proposition.
Thanks for your comment.
