Ok maybe it’s me… sorry. But does the timeline shows all new tweets from all users?? Or can you also show tweets from a couple of users or only users you follow/lists?

It looks very nice btw! :)

The timeline is configurable by any query you could time into search.twitter.com

Examples: “Google Instant” “to:timtebow” “from:techcrunch” ”#nfl” “near:sf within:15mi”

To configure simply initialize the timeline like this.
<script>
    tweetTimeline = new TweetTimeline({ query:"to:timtebow", speed:3, max_stage:100 });
    tweetTimeline.start();
</script>

can multiple instances of this appear on same page, each with a different live stream search term?

Can the size of the container box be changed such that it only has 2 columns and maybe 3 tweets per column?

Very interesting script!

Yes, you can have multiple instances. You just need to make sure each one has a unique id then when you initialize the timelines pass in a timelineId param like this.

<script>
    tweetTimeline = new TweetTimeline({ query:"Google Instant", speed:3, max_stage:100, timelineId:'timeline2' });
    tweetTimeline.start();
</script> 

I do caution that you need to be cautious of the Twitter rate limit per user. This is using jsonp so your server ip wont have limit problems but you can only make the users ip hit the limit if you push things. By default this makes at least 12-15 requests per hour and each ip is allocated 150 requests. You should be good with 2-3 timelines but that is really starting to overload the dom. If you do that I would probably decrease the maxStage to around 50 and increase the speed to 6+. That would trickle items in slower but its less intensive on the browser.

Yes, you can certainly modify the dimensions of the timeline, column width, number of items per column…this is all controlled by CSS .

I wish you explained your item more in dept at the item details. Here are a few questions:

1) Do I have to add twitter user IDs to the list or can the twitter users add their own IDs to the list on their own on my site?

2) How many twitter user IDs can I add to the list? Does it have limitation or it’s unlimited? Can I add lets say million IDs if it’s unlimited?

3) Is it possible to decrease the speed that twitts would arrive slower (every 5/10 minutes) that site visitors have enough time to view and read them all?

This is a great script. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback.

1) Yes, you could initialize the timeline from a form. Making an input in the form the query parameter of the timeline.

2) You can have several usernames using an ‘or’ query like ‘to:mashable+or+to:techcrunch’

3) Yes, change the speed parameter from 3 (1 item every 3 seconds) to 10,15,30…whatever you think is a good speed.

Thanks for the info. Will you give me the direction/instructions how to setup these after I purchased your item?

I would buy it now if you would help me to set these up. Regards.

Sure, I think other buyers will want to know how to do this as well so I’m planning on writing a tutorial in the near future. I’ll let you know when I post it.

Hi,

I want to add maybe 20 users to this manually. Is this possible? Would that ping twitter too much or could they stream in at the normal pace as in your demo?

Thanks

I checked your Live Preview in iE9 and the tweets only appear for a few seconds, then disappear again, is there a fix for this?

thanks
