Usage

Get JQuery. In these examples, we use Google's AJAX Libraries API.

include jQuery and jquery.tweet.js files in your template's <head>.

 <script language="javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
 <script language="javascript" src="/tweet/jquery.tweet.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Also in <head>, Initialize tweet! on page load with your Username and other options

 <script type='text/javascript'>
     jQuery(function($){
         $(".tweet").tweet({
             join_text: "auto",
             avatar_size: 32,
             count: 3,
             loading_text: "loading tweets..."
         });
     });
 </script>

In <body>, include a placeholder for your tweets. They'll get loaded in via JSON. How fancy!
```
 <div class="tweet"></div>
```

Style with our stylesheet in <head>, or modify as you like!

 <link href="jquery.tweet.css" media="all" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"/>
