Twitter Column Expander

A friend mentioned to me that they were annoyed with the way the new Twitter layout wasted lots of pixels to the left and the right of the timeline. So I knocked together a quick user script for Google Chrome to do this.

You can get it to happen on any site by saving the following link as a bookmark (or dragging it to your bookmark bar) and clicking on it:
Newspaper Spin This!

Turns out it's incredibly easy to do the transformations on the body element in HTML. It's just a case of setting the appropriate style value to the desired rotation amount.
