    Making a twitter bot is not hard, but making it scalable is, if you think that you will get a lot of traffic then first learn code architecture and scalability because when you have millions of records per day you will need to have a solid base. As far as the programming language is concerned, you should choose the language which you can work easily with, Facebook is on PHP, Pinterest on Python, eBay on Java, etc. So you can see language isn't a bottleneck as all of these services are running well, you should concentrate on writing good and scalable program. I hope you get my point.

    I do not think that it would be as much easier to do something like this.

    If you want the bot running on a website, Javascript and PHP. If you want it running as a desktop app, some dialect of C.
