Offline Editor for Twitter?

I want a MarsEdit style bookmarklet-driven editing application for Twitter.
(MarsEdit lets you bookmark and compose blog posts on your system, even while you are offline. You can write a bunch on the plane and upload them later, for example.)
It should:

  • abbreviate and include page/asset link
  • track character count during edit
  • save drafts locally for posting later
  • support upload of assets (ie pics to twitpic)
  • sync with Twitter to keep a database of all my tweets and drafts
  • import my @replies, dms & the results of some preset Twitter searches
  • drafts and tweets should be searchable
  • offer versatile publishing tools to repurpose tweets and replies for blog posts, etc.
I get that I am among relatively few people who would really use this tool, but that could change. Maybe MarsEdit itself can just add (some of) this as a feature?

Guy Kawasaki Returns the Favor...

So, I had a part in convincing Guy Kawasaki to join Twitter. (And he's been particularly kind today about sharing that with people.)

Well, he just turned me onto Posterous, and precisely as I was considering whether or not to start a tumblog. So here we go...

Name I've contemplated for this: iWonder... There's other ideas in my Moleskine, for later.
