How do you get the twitter updates on your website? Ive seen it alot and am wondering how its done?

There may be an rss feed available from Twitter. If not you can write a script to open the page, read in the file and hunt out the info you want to add to your site. Run it periodically using a CRON job.

The way I did it, which probably isn't the right way but it works

 

Go to: http://twitter.com/widgets

 

Select "Other" then HTML Widget

can i see an example of what that looks ike chris?

You make it look like whatever you want with css.. I have it on my new portfolio that I'm making at the moment, can find that here: http://www.chriswhite-online.co.uk/cwo and look that footer.

 

You can have it display as many tweets as you want, I have only selected one.

 

Probably a better way of doing it is via the API, which I will probably experiment with later.

Awesome thanks!
