If you like this kind of development, I'd suggest you check out YQL. I built www.choip.me which handles most of the interface and twitter interaction using yql to interact with twitter, that's a good example. I haven't touched choip.me in a long time, just never turned it off so I'm sure portions of it are broken. Another example of where I've done this is with the autocomplete at unscatter.com, where I used yql to pull data from Blekko. yql for sites that haven't blocked it can be a pretty invaluable tool for doing client side development against websites/apis.
