Dim post_data As String = TextBox1.Text
            Dim url As String = "http://twitter.com/statuses/
update.xml?status=" & post_data

            Dim xml As String = oauth.WebRequest(RequestMethod.POST,
url, String.Empty)

This is my code.

I'll try URL Encoding the string next. Thanks for the suggestion.
