Showit provides a Twitter widget to display tweets. The good thing is that it’s quick and fits most designs; the bad thing is that it’s not able to be used in some designs. There IS a bit of a workaround that will give you a little bit more control, and may allow you to achieve the look you we’re initially going for.
Open Showit, and add the Feed Reader Widget to the stage. Next, visit your Twitter profile while logged out. Look to the very bottom, of the right sidebar, and you’ll find the RSS icon to subscribe to the timeline feed. Copy this link, and paste it into the “Feed URL” section. That’s it! It will only display a minimum of three posts, but you can shrink the widget down in the advanced panel (canvas size), and get rid of the scroll bar to make it look like it only has one tweet. Finally, style and tweak your tweets!

I want to officially say; I’m not worried about it [...]
