Bug Description

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!
