The Magnificent Twitter Tweetmatic 1000
Description
This is a simple little script that pulls a given public timeline from twitter and displays it on a page.
The script GETs around cross domain restrictions by requesting the data be sent back to us as a JSON formatted string wrapped in a Callback function. JSON with padding, or JSONP as the cool kids call it.
Cross domain restrictions are very important, but in this instance we trust the data source. Just remember that cross domain restrictions are there for a reason and you should always trust where your data is coming from. And keep in mind that trust on the interweb is a commodity, so even trusted data should always be verified, checked and escaped. As Mulder would say - "Trust no one".
