A quick question about twitter automation


I am posting this because I'm hoping someone will give me an idea on how I can accomplish the following. I am not expecting anyone to do all the work for me but I would like some direction and some ideas.


It's quite simple. I have a list of around 400 "tweets" in text. Like this:


1) "@tomweber Hello, I'm tom and I do not know programming"


2) "@barrysmith I like icecream and football and cake"


3) @mikeweber I have brown hair and blue eyes ....


....


400) @katweber This is now the end of the list


I'm wondering if it is possible to create a simple program which will take each text in turn with a few seconds gap in between each and then tweet them in my twitter account. I am aware there are "scheduled tweeters" available like hootsuite or futuretweets but I am not looking for something like that.


I am a complete n00b but I just learnt how to do macros in word, and I was wondering if there is something like that I could use in this scenario, except it's not restricted to Microsoft Word; basically I only need three actions: 1) select one piece of text 2) tweet it in my account 3) move onto the next piece of text. And then run this continuously until I reach the end of the text?


Could someone give me some direction? Is it absolutely necessary that I must create my own "twitter app" or is there a simpler way that I can accomplish this?


Much appreciated and I apologize if I sounded like an idiot / clueless :-)
