Adds a sidebar widget to display Twitter updates using the more-reliable Google Ajax API.The Problem: On many blogs, I need to add a little twitter badge to a front-page or sidebar. There are many, many great apps out there to do this including Twitter's own javascript badge. The problem is that Twitter's feed is very unreliable and only works about 50% of the time. That's completely unacceptable.The Solution: After much looking around, I've hit upon a simple method for displaying tweets using Google's Ajax API. Google's reliable servers do all the caching for us and life is good again.I used the excellent Twitter Widget app by Sean Spalding as a base and the Google Ajax concept by Emmett Connolly.Installation :Copy the folder to your WordPress '/wp-content/plugins/' folder. 1. Activate the 'Reliable Twitter' plugin in your WordPress admin 'Plugins' 2. Go to 'Appearance / Widgets' in your WordPress admin area. 3. Drag the 'Reliable Twitter' widget to your sidebar. 4. Configure the options: 1. Account: Your Twitter account ID, REQUIRED. 2. Title: The heading you want to appear above your Twitters in the sidebar, defaults to 'Twitter Updates'. 3. Show: The number of Tweets shown, defaults to 3. 4. Link Target: The default link target, defaults to '_blank'. 5. Follow Me Text: Text for a follow-me link after your twitter feed, optional and defaults to nothing. 6. Twitter Username: Only needed if you enter follow me text, used for the link. Defaults to nothing. 7. Google API Key: Your Google API key if you wish to include it, completely optional and not required in any way.
