Publish-Tweet -TweetText $PSFollowFridayTweet

Updated to work with v0.5.0 release.

The Get-TwitterListMember returns a string array of usernames. I need a [BluebirdPS.APIV2.UserInfo.User] for Get-TwitterTimeline so I needed to use Get-TwitterUser which has a limit of 100 usernames per call.

To easily chunk the returned members list into 100 (or less), I included Split-Array from a StackOverflow answer from @mklement0. Thanks! That's some awesome code.

Updated. Only use Split-Array if the membership count is greater than 100.

Updated. Added Out-Null to Add-TwitterListMember statements.

Update. Added logic to skip protected users and to enforce CustomClasses output.
