I have been trying to write a simple mention grabber to get started with the twitter Api. Howsoever I've been experienceing some difficulties when initializing the Api.Running python2 on archlinux I installed twitter via easy_install, built it from source and installed it via pip. None of this seems to be working.

I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. I hope you can help
UPDATE:I tried using twitter.api() instead of twitter.Api() and got the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "main.py", line 8, in api = twitter.api() TypeError: 'module' object is not callable
