Many people like me love Twitter because we can get in touch with people who have similar interests no matter where you are or what you’re doing. Twitter is great and so much more manageable, it’s quick and it’s snazzy. A tweet can have a maximum of 140 characters. We can update the staus by web, applications or text.
jQuery is a lightweight JavaScript library that emphasizes interaction between JavaScript and HTML. If you owned a wordpress based blog, maybe you have known, in fact, wordpress is also a jQuery based blog system.
With following jQuery Twitter Plugins, we can add twees to our websites easily, if you know something about javascript, html and php, even you can request Twitter public informations from your sites with jQuery Twitter API.
jQuery plugin for Twitter
You can add alternative content to the container element (that you pass to the plugin). This will be replaced by your tweets when the plugin is executed by jQuery. If JavaScript is disabled or the plugin fails, your visitors will still see your alternative content – a good idea therefore would be to include a link to your twitter profile.
All styles are now added to the container elements via a new ".twitted" class, If you’re upgrading from the old plugin version, you’ll need to transfer your old styles across into the new syntax.
3 new customisation options: slideDuration (if slideIn is true, this will change the duration of the slide effect), showProfileLink (set to false if you want to hide the link), showTimestamp (set to false if you want to remove the timestamp from tweets – the timestamp is then added as a title on the individual tweet list items).
