Twitter embed
Ok, things rolling on the blog theme and i’ve just added twitter.
It’s clearly the easiest and nicest way to do it:
<script src=”http://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js” type=”text/javascript”></script>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
new TWTR.Widget({
version: 2,
type: ‘profile’,
rpp: 4,
interval: 8000,
width: 227,
height: 300,
theme: {
shell: {
background: ‘white’,
color: ‘#5C5C5C’
},
tweets: {
background: ‘white’,
color: ‘#5C5C5C’,
links: ‘#EF0277’
}
},
features: {
scrollbar: false,
loop: true,
live: true,
hashtags: true,
timestamp: true,
avatars: false,
behavior: ‘default’
}
}).render().setUser(‘restlessmedia’).start();
</script>
