I can supply any needed details that you would need. I am using WordPress but just using HTML in a page at this moment.

  1. bluedevilsYou just need to use Twitter’s free javascript API widget. It’s very easy to use the wizard:

    Here’s something similar to Duke’s:

    <script src="http://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js"></script>
    <script>
    new TWTR.Widget({
      version: 2,
      type: 'profile',
      rpp: 8,
      interval: 6000,
      width: 700,
      height: 300,
      theme: {
        shell: {
          background: '#ffffff',
          color: '#b364b3'
        },
        tweets: {
          background: '#ffffff',
          color: '#ffffff',
          links: '#338012'
        }
      },
      features: {
        scrollbar: false,
        loop: false,
        live: true,
        hashtags: true,
        timestamp: true,
        avatars: true,
        behavior: 'default'
      }
    }).render().setUser('bluedevils').start();
    </script>
