Pixy is using Twitter

Tuesday Feb 24, 2009

Twitter; the social networking phenomenon which just keeps growing and growing has just grown a little more... Pixy is now using Twitter to give up-to-the-minute news. So if you're interested please follow us.

Many PixyBlogger's are already using Twitter and have integrated it into their blogs. There are many different ways on doing this, but by far the easiest is to use the Twitter Badge. Just like the PixyBlog Badge, it's a simple step-by-step process to cut-and-paste the code into your template. We have just set-up a twitter page on our News Blog which displays the latest updates. We used the simple HTML Widget which produced the following code snippet:

<div id="twitter_div">
<h2 class="sidebar-title">Twitter Updates</h2>
<ul id="twitter_update_list"></ul>
<a href="http://twitter.com/pixyblog" id="twitter-link" style="display:block;text-align:right;">follow me on Twitter</a>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/pixyblog.json?callback=twitterCallback2&amp;count=5"></script>

Very easy... But be warned, Twitter is addictive!
