Posted on Sep 6 2012 - 4:34am by Editorial Staff

The micro-blogging giant Twitter has announced a new tool that makes it easy to embed interactive timelines of Tweets on any website. These newly formed embeddable timelines enable publishers, writers, developers, and any Twitter user to drop a rich, interactive piece of Twitter into their websites.

Twitter explains the feature:

When you browse websites that have embedded a Twitter timeline, you can now interact with it in the same way you do on twitter.com. Expand Tweets to see photos, media, and more. Start a conversation from the Tweet box, follow users that you discover, and reply to, retweet, or favorite Tweets directly from the page.

The feature is already being used by ESPN, London Fashion Week and writer Margaret Atwood, as well as Twitter itself on its official blog.
