People have been asking me how on earth did I manage to integrate my Twitter feeds on my blog. It’s really simple..I used a plugin called Twitter Tools.

Twitter Tools is a Wordpress plugin created by Alex King that lets you create a complete integration of your Wordpress blog and Twitter account.

With Twitter Tools you can:

• Archive your tweets
• Create a blog post from each of your tweets
• Create a tweet on Twitter whenever you post in your blog, with a link to the blog post
• Post a tweet from your sidebar
• Create a daily digest post of your tweets
• Post a tweet from the WP Admin screens
• Pass your tweets along to another service (e.g., Facebook)
• You can also choose the number of tweets you want to show in the sidebar.

So, here’s how to add Twitter on your blog.

1. Download Twitter Tools plugin.
2. Upload ‘twitter-tools.php’ file into your wp-content/plugins/ directory.
3. Login to your Wordpress admin area and go to Plugins and click activate for Twitter Tools.
4. Go to Options > Twitter Tools and set your Twitter info and preferrences.
5. Open the wordpress file where you want to show your tweets (e.g., sidebar.php) and insert this code:
   
6. Lastly, update your wordpress file.

If you have any questions, I’d be happy to help if I know the answer. :)
