Dear people,
I had once suggested that we add a widget to our sites/blogs, which list recent tweets with the #openSUSE hashtag. However, as my familiarity with the twitter API approaches zero, I couldn't implement the suggestion. Today I came across this wordpress plug-in [1], which, for all practical purposes, performs the same action for a customisable hashtag. Could we not incorporate this into our personal sites as well as on official ones?
Also this [2] seems to be a possible solution across multiple . Am trying to use in my blog here [3], but it fails to work suitably. Maybe one of you can offer a better solution.
Please point us to alternatives, if any, as I think a centrally standardised widget visible in several places should be a good thing.

I don't really know any alternatives myself, but it sounds like a good plan. We can collect the widgets or links on our wiki: http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Marketing_materials#.28Micro.29blogging Just add these links here, maybe with some explanation. See if something else comes up or if you can find something - and there might be good artwork too, on our git repository (of which I still have no idea where it is hehe). Cheers, Jos
