Create a Twitter Mashup Using Popfly

Microsoft Popfly Guide

In this Popfly guide, we will use Microsoft's mashup editor to create a Twitter mashup that displays tweets as chat bubbles.

We will accomplish this by creating a user input block to obtain the Twitter account, linking this block to a Twitter block, sending the Twitter information to the chat bubble block and, last, wrapping the Popfly mashup in a timed loop.

Note: In order to use Popfly, you will need to have Microsoft Silverlight installed on your computer and have a Microsoft Live user ID.
