So, I've got the tweetBoxes rendering just fine and doing the onTweet
callbacks, but they don't actually post anything to my twitter profile
(and, yes, I've authorized the app). Even the example boxes on
http://dev.twitter.com/anywhere/begin#tweetbox that post as the "My
Pet Monster" app don't create tweets...

Make sure the app is set to read and write and that you have authorized a read and write token on your connections page.

so, they work for you? Because, after the twitter guys posted about
the default read-only settings, I changed my app to r&w, regenerated
the key and still can't get it to post a tweet. The examples still
don't post to my feed either.

Yes it works for me. See http://twitter.com/abraham/status/12411336409 just posted from http://anywhere.drup.al/.

You may have to clear your cookies and revoke access to your application first.

Trouble shooting the TweetBox not posting. 

1) Check that your application has "Read and Write" as the "Default access type". If not edit your application so it does. https://twitter.com/apps
2) Check that your access token for said application has "read and write access". If not revoke access and re-authorized from your website. https://twitter.com/settings/connections
3) Delete your cookies. Specifically the "twttr_anywhere" cookie for the website using said application.
