As Taylor says, you don't need a different app for each account, but
actually that's the easy solution, with the added benefit that you
never need to do the Oauth dance to capture any tokens. PLUS... each
app gets the glory of it's own "via" tag.

Creating an app is no more work than creating a Twitter account. The
actual app is of course your same code each time. Just fill in the
blanks and grab the tokens using the 'My Access Token" link.

Then in your publication code just substitute in the keys for that
site/account.
