If you want to send updates to Twitter using their API you will somehow have to provide the username and password for your Twitter account. Of course you can enter these once and store them in your preferences. For some code see this example of a Twitter client.

The code to piggy-back the Twidroid application to sent tweets is at their website:

Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); 
sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "This is a sample message"); 
sendIntent.setType("application/twitter");      
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sendIntent, null)); 

Please note that this requires users to have Twidroid preinstalled.

I'd recommend using the oauth-signpost library and the example source code here. Worked great for me, and you're not storing usernames and passwords.
