displaying the #locoteams last 5 dents/tweets on main page

[Laura Czajkowski]

it's be great to make the main page more interesting. We're using the tag #locoteams on social networks and it'd be nice when it fully takes off to display the tag here and show the last few mentions.

This would be very nice to have.

http://www.feedparser.org/ would let us aggregate RSS feeds from twitter and identica

Another option is to use a javascript widget, which means we don't have to install any libraries on the server

[Rory McCann (rorymcc)]

It might be possible to use a javascript code to do this that pulls directly from the site in question. Pros: (a) no special libraries needed server side (b) no extra processing needed server side. Cons: (a) it might only work with one service (i.e. only twitter or only identica)

Here is what I'm currently working on, please let me know what you like/dislike about it

[Laura Czajkowski (czajkowski)]

I love it!

Likewise, we can add a feed to Global Events that have a hashtag
