Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that
automatically tweet my newest twitter updates. I’ve been looking for
a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this.
Please let me know if you run into anything.
I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new
updates.
Thank you, for your comment. I do not know of any plug-in like you describe. How do I connect to your X page? And your Epoch Times articles? William E. Cleary Sr. CNBNews Editor
