    I want to run some twitter feeds to the right of my forum. Anybody have a feed like that? Is there a plug-in mod.? I'm thinking if I have the most current tweets rolling in on my niche everyone will have more current news to chat about.

    You can use your forum's rss feed and submit it to http://www.twitterfeed.com that's what I'm currently using and it runs new threads and when a thread is updated, it posts a new tweet for you. It works great!

    Problem with plug-in mods is that they may stop working as soon as Twitter makes changes to its API and this happens very often making impossible keep pulling in tweets for too long.

    I used TwittterFeed in the past but I don't remember what issue they had that made me drop this service. Not sure, but probably was related with what was said about changes to the API that probably made that service stop working for a bit.
