Why would you give it a name with such negative connotations like Quitter?

Yes, it has an API. Even MG's article mentioned it.

I run a small site called http://twitya.com - maybe that'd be a better name for it, named after the Twitya river in Canada.

Nothing in the article about API.

Quitting has immensely positive connotations if it leads to something better. It's only one consonant off twitter.
