Do you have a link to this widget? A website I can see the code on?

Thanks Cory! Am using tabby2 and was trying to add the Twitter stream to the sidebar and couldn't get it to work. I'm clueless when it comes to code. Do I need the web hosting even if I purchased my own domain through posterous? As you can see, I'm tech-illiterate.

Yep. Currently Posterous doesn't support javascript, which is needed to make the Twitter feed work correctly. As a result, the instructions I wrote up are a workaround, and so for now, you have to have a web hosting account for the hack. But if you can wait a few months, Posterous will probably come out with javscript support, which will enable the use of a Twitter widget without having to do a bunch of hacking nonsense. =]

Thanks
