If you are an active Twitter user and can't live without constantly checking your Twitter stream wherever you are, check out Twitbridge. It is a web proxy that lets you access Twitter even from places where its access is blocked by a firewall or a proxy (high school, work, different country etc).

If your network restricts you from accessing Twitter, simply head to Twitbridge and click the "Access now" button on their homepage. You will be redirected to Twitter's homepage, where you can then sign in with your Twitter credentials. No need to download an app, register for an account or install a plugin. All it takes is a single click from the Twitbridge homepage.

Once you are signed in, you will see the usual Twitter interface you are used to. The only difference is that you will see www.twitbridge.com in your address bar instead of twitter.com. So now you can access Twitter from any place, without worrying about possible network restrictions.

It is currently in beta but supports most of Twitter's features. More features are planned in the future including SSL support, IP access, multiple domains and others.
