Haha, point taken. I always error (literally) on the side of conciseness. I'll add more verbage.

I added better messaging and error handling since Twitter seems to be really flakey this morning.

Not necessarily. Setting up the hook on GitHub's end lets you not worry about having the proper hook set up on your laptop (I guess).
