** Description changed:

  I think that I only have this problem on XFCE, which don't use the
  notify-OSD daemon but xfce4-notifyd instead (better looking, more
  customizable —and by built-in settings in addition— by the way).
  
  Shortly: I sometimes have a notification with "New tweet from XXXX" title but with no tweet content.
  And if I check in the Birdie window, I see this tweet correctly with the tweet content.
  
  I don't have looked more to see if we can found a common pattern between
  these tweets that appeared empty >in the notification< through. But
  perhaps there is none. I think it was all tweets with image, but not
  sure at all. Perhaps it's again a parsing problem (regarding
  notifications only therefore, which don't make much sense, as it's
  global the parsing I think) that prevents completely the tweet content
  to be shown there. I don't know…
  
- [EDIT] Just seen this problem again in a notification and no image link in this tweet. Just few words with a normal link (here to twitter.com/search/realtime?q=XXXX&src=typd). The only "special" things I see is that the link contains, in the XXXX part, some % characters.

  %20 for space encoding in the URL, and some others like %9C %C3 (among others so).
