## Description

A stylized Twitter widget. I created this plugin because I wanted a better looking
widget on my personal blog. It’s not as complex as some other plugins, but it serves
its purpose. The widget will adjust itself to the width of the sidebar automatically.
It does use some CSS3 for rounded corners and transitioning, but it will look completely
fine on other browsers. It also auto updates the Twitter feed for a specified amount
of time which can be changed in the settings page.

## Screenshots

## Installation

To install, throw the folder “tweeter” into your wp-content/plugins folder. Then
go to the dashboard and activate the plugin. Tweeter! should now appear in the widgets
section. The Tweeter! settings page can be found under settings in the sidebar of
the dashboard.
 IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CHANGE THE SETTINGS BEFORE YOU ENABLE
THE WIDGET, OTHERWISE YOUR TWEETS WILL NOT BE VISIBLE.

## FAQ

  What settings can you change?

 * Twitter username
 * Number of tweets to show
 * Feed refresh interval (in ms)
 * Show replies?

  Surely you didn’t create this, whodunit?

Alright, I admit, I didn’t create every part of this plugin. The code is based on
Remy Sharp’s twitter.js script. He did an excellent job, so if there’s any praising
that should be done, please thank him.

The post on his site of twitter.js can be found here:

  I’m not going to tell you my password!

The beauty of the plugin, is you don’t have to. This plugin will never ask for your
password, It simply displays your tweets!
