As the question suggests, I’m looking for a plugin that can cycle through my latest five tweets one at a time, and via Javascript/jQuery, it automatically rotates between the tweets on a set interval.
I’ve looked at quite a few, and all of them can only either show one or multiple, but with no automatic cycling.
Thanks in advance.
Nice idea for a plugin!
I started to write one with Widget, Shortcode and Options page but will have to take on it later on…
Meanwhile, I’ve published the bare bone, that is: a plugin for doing a Tweet Cycler Widget.

The CSS adjustments and the Cycle plugin configuration have to be done directly in the code, check the FAQ.
Here’s an excpert of the ReadMe:
while I can’t offer a simple plugin solution right offhand it’d be really simple to build the functionality with twitter.js and jQuery cycle with minimal knowledge of js/jQuery.
Read up on how to implement twitter.js here:

cycle

basically just setup your twitter.js to call in 5 most latest, wrap them in a container LI’s and set cycle to cycle those LI’s.
try my plugin
Twitter Hash Tag Shortcode
witch lets you display the most recent twitter status updates for a particular hash tag in your posts/pages using shortcode.
