Getting twitter feeds and displaying them on a DW page?

Hi guys,

I'm trying to find a way to show the latest twitter tweets favorized by a certain twitter user.

To clarify my skills: I am new to Razor and have no klowledge of .Net and doing custom modules etc. :-)

So I've found this http://linqtotwitter.codeplex.com/ - is this something that could be used on a Dynamicweb installation (e.g. a custom Express solution)?

Hi Jacob,

I don't think you need anything like custom .NET code to do that. Twitter's developer website has a lot of great information.

Are either of there what you're looking for?

Hi Jeppe,

Not quite, I'm looking for a much more customizable way... the feed I need is describe on this page: https://dev.twitter.com/rest/reference/get/favorites/list - to get this I need to authorize.

Actually the RemoteHttp (Indholdsintegration) module + some way of authorization would do the trick... This module takes care of caching the data too, which is a requirement by Twitter.
