Ask HN: using tweets from happy users on website?

You can hook up your twitter to your website and then have the Tweets rolling if you've retweeted them. That's an organic way of doing it.

I did it here at www.Twiddle.ie.

Just reposting Tweets would probably require permission out of courtesy, but the organic way has a better impression on site visitors.

The danger of that is when someone hijacks your hashtag or name and starts complaining.

The same thing can be done by favorite them and display your favorite tweets on your website. This way you do not screw your Twitter stream
