A twitter-clone UDP social-networking application built with Python's socket module.
- Register: registers a user to the tweeter application. It will take a handle (username), an IP address, and 3 ports (one port for communication between the tracker and itself, and two for following other users).
- Query handles: returns a list of handles (usernames) that are currently registered in the tweeter application to the client.
- Follow: follows another user
- Drop: unfollows another user
- Tweet: sends out a tweet (message) to the followers
- End tweet: makes sure all the tweets are sent in the correct order
- Exit: exits the application
