I personally think this may be one of the better options for Live Twitter Feeds for an event or iCampus / Online Experience for your ministry and/or organization.
Enter Tinker.com!
The customization settings are really good (moderation, approval, bad language, custom background/icon, etc), and it also provides an easy to embed widget on your own property, which enables one to be able to login directly into Twitter.
Not too shabby, if you ask me.
Perhaps the only downside currently is that it doesn’t auto-refresh the feed, which doesn’t really make it “live” … but, otherwise, it’s a great option with great functionality and easy to setup.
These applications are becoming a dime-a-dozen now; I think the question isn’t so much “what” are you using but rather “how” because a lot of these apps and services do the same thing.
Do what you do best with whatever you decide to use and I think you’ll be fine!
Will you use this? What are your thoughts?

Hey John. My name is Emmanuel and I am an engineer at Tinker. We are actually working on an auto-refresh live stream feature so your prayers will be answered 🙂
