Twitter Widget - Embedded in a Blog Post


Trick of the Day

You may have noticed that sometimes a website will contain a list of tweets about a certain topic, or from a certain user.   This is easily introduced into your Blog or Website using Twitter's online "Widget Tool".

Look at how nicely it works for our #MMM61 hashtag.
Pretty cool, I think.   But then again I'm easily entertained, and rather biased.

    Glad you found this to be useful. I have noticed that the results differ (as expected!) depending on the operating system and device used to view the page in which the widget is embedded. Best results include full access to (and use of) a scroll-bar allowing the visitor to browse through the entire list of tweets. In some cases, all the visitor can see is a "still" image of the top tweet or tweets.

    Let me know how this works for you. Looking forward to seeing the crowd in New Orleans in a few weeks.
