Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gwibber

If you send a tweet from the Me Menu, in Twitter it shows up as "via
Gwibber". This does make a good deal of sense technically, but it is
very possible that many people who set up broadcast accounts don't even
know what Gwibber is (I met one yesterday in fact); due to the wonderful
integration, you can send and receive tweets without actually using the
Gwibber client proper.

I think it could be really cool if tweets from the Me Menu were "via
Ubuntu". It makes more conceptual sense since I really am broadcoasting
from the OS itself due to the level of integration, and is an additional
nice and simple marketing/awareness element. It has a nicer ring and
gets to the simplicity that Ubuntu has achieved with the various
messaging/status menus and integration.

I just thought I would file this to throw out a suggestion and am
interested in any feedback. Thanks for the great application and
integration!
