CakePHP Twitter Timeline

This is original sunday evening fun stuff!

I’ve found the Timeline Javascript via the german Cakery weblog and was curious about the name and functionality. While looking at the examples it straight hit me. This would be cool for Twitter!

Walking through the examples i hacked an data adapter for the Twitter JSON response. With some more tweaks, like adding the Twitter Icon and colors, i build something that is monitoring the #cakephp hashtag and delivers the 200 most recent tweets in a beautiful scrollable timeline!

See it in action here

Spread and enjoy :)

PS: might break in browsers other than FF..
