[Plugin: Twitter Blackbird Pie] Use outside of Loop

Hi there!

Plugin’s great, made a blog post about it and was planning to use it as well outside of post content.

That’s where I’m stuck, sorry if this is NooB, but:

how do I make BlackbirdPie get applied to (whatever) e.g. in function.php file having something like:

$string="[blackbirdpie url="http://twitter.com/#!/teamaxura/status/59249099538571264"]";
$parsed_string = BlackbirdPie($string);

Aim is to be able to apply BlackbirdPie “outside” of the_content of a post.

First, thanks for reading this, second, thanks a lot for helping if you feel like!
