I don't know the Twitter API, but you're calling GetUserTimeline with
a count of 3, which presumably returns a list of 3 items. The list
itself doesn't have a 'created_at' attribute, hence the error. Perhaps
if you did:
tweet = twitter.Api().GetUserTimeline(settings.TWITTER_USER,
count=3) [0]
you would have better luck.
