Twitter has become phenomenally popular around the world. So if you are an avid blogger and a twitterer yourself, then you must be wondering how to synchronize them both? Here is a simple trick that will add twitter gadget to your blog so that you can be updated on both in a single window.
You only have to copy/paste the code into your sidebar. Follow the steps given below to add the widget into your blog’s sidebar.
- Log in to Blogger.
- Go to Layout > Page Elements.
- Click on Add a Gadget.
- Select HTML/JavaScript from the list. Copy/paste the code given below and Save.
< div id="twitter_div">
< ul id="twitter_update_list"></ul>
< a id="twitter-link" style="display:block;text-align:right;" href="https://twitter.com/itsme“>follow me on Twitter</a>
< /div>
< script src=”https://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js” type=”text/javascript”>< /script>
< script src=”https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/itsme.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=10” type=”text/javascript”>
< /script>
Repace itsme by your twitter username. You can also select the number of message updates you want to display by changing the twitterCallback2&count=10
part to any number.
Happy blogging and twitering.
[Eliminate the space between < and any other string in the code.]
