I have officially created my first WordPress plugin and widget, Get My Tweets.

While there are other plugins that do similar things, display your recent tweets on your WordPress powered blog, this one makes special use of PHP 5 and the XMLReader extension. So in other words if your hosting provider does not meet those requirements, you will not be able to use the plugin.

There are only two options for the plugin, Twitter user name and numer of tweets to retrieve. The user name supplied must be set to have the time line be public in order for the plugin to parse the xml file from Twitter.
