With Embeddable Timelines, Twitter Widgets Become More Interactive

Twitter announced a new feature today that's supposed to make it easier for publishers embed a timeline of relevant tweets ? the company describes it as a way for "publishers, writers, developers, and any Twitter user to drop a rich, interactive piece of Twitter into their websites." You've probably seen widgets with content from Twitter before ? for example the WordPress widget allows publishers to highlight tweets from a particular Twitter account. However, it sounds like the new embeddable timeline is both more customizable and more interactive. In other words, you're not just looking at tweets, then jumping to Twitter itself if you want to respond. Instead, you can follow a user, reply, retweet, favorite a tweet, or even view photos directly from the timeline.
