Hello Jim,

What sort of chat are you trying to create, exactly? A Direct Message, or 
a public message on the user's timeline?

In the first case, you probably will want to use -contactWithUID:

In the second case, you should use AITwitterAccount's -timelineChat, which 
internally is a group chat with all your followers as participants.

Hope this helps,
Thijs
