Sweet little tip!
Add a "Follow Us on Twitter" Badge, to the left or right side of your site.
Go here and create your code:

You will enter your Twitter Account (Twitter Team Members: Feel free to add ours if you don't have your own. NingTweets)
You can change colors
You can change the "text"!

After you create your code, do the following:

Go to Manage/Analytics Box
Paste your code into the Analytics Box
DONE!

Enjoy!

Easy as 1 2 3

If you have room in your Analytics box, it should not interfere. At least I don't think so. And, I don't know that it's better, just easy access to Visitors and nice looking.

thx for the info.
will this interfere w/ the scrolling marquee im already running in analytics ?
is this somehow better than the personal badge which twitter has always provided ? im running it in a text box (as you've suggested here )
thx much

I removed the extra tip about adding code to text box, if not enough room in Analytics box. I am getting errors in IE, if added to text box.

Happy,
I sent you a private email. I am receiving errors when in text box - - in IE. When in Analytics Box, it's running very smoothly.
Best,
Jen

LOL! Glad you like it! Keep a watch on it. This is pulling external code. But, I checked out the site providing this service, and it looks like it's here for the long haul.

So far, it's working great for myself and colleagues. But, only if it's installed in the Analytics box. I did have issues in IE on one site where I had added it in a text box. At first, we thought it would work okay in a text box. Then we realized it wasn't in IE. Wish I knew something else to help. Oh wait - - I remember reading this specifically: it will not work in IE 6.0. If you happen to have 6.0, just upgrade. That's a fairly out of date version.

l do not know if you like it or not, but l went and download explorer 8 and l love it.l think they are trying to copy firefox. But which ever, l like the internet explorer 8. Plus this 8 works great with Vista home premuim.
