I briefly looked at it once; I need to revisit it.

I'm pretty sure that Twitter has an API that I can subscribe to.

None.
However, I did start looking at the API again the other day.
One stumbling block I'd have to overcome is a somewhat technical (and also financial) one in that I'd have to secure the site with SSL, it seems, to make use of their Cards API.

You can get SSL from namecheap.com for 10 bucks.

Its really not difficult.

It only becomes slightly more technical if you change your url and need to do a redirect. Such as removing www
I dont recommend removing www. I did that, when I switched my sites to https, and google decided to derank me.

I'd gladly chip in to get you this. The ability to embed videos from twitter would really help the draft forum.

It would be helpful considering the amount of breaking news that first appears on Twitter.

I'm gonna look at this.
I've been wanting to switch registrars for a while now... may as well look at doing it all in one swell foop.
