## Description

Add a Tweet-stimonials widget to your Available Widgets and use your Twitter favorites
for automatic sidebar testimonials. Twitter provides the capability to flag your
favorite tweets. If you choose to only favorite tweets, where your clients are saying
good things about you, then Tweet-stimonials can turn those tweets into on-site 
testimonials.

When client testimonials are marked as favorites they are then automatically published
to your site, making for one of the easiest and quickest ways to publish testimonials.
As soon as you mark a new tweet as a favorite, it will show up on your site.
