    I didn't like how this worked. An easier way was to go through twitter and add the official TweetStream HTML (when signed in to twitter.com go here – http://twitter.com/about/resources/widgets/widget_profile
    Click Finish and grab code and it'll have an add to Blogger button also.

    Once you add that, go to blogger.com, your blog, click Design, Edit HTML. Check the "Expand Widget Templates" box. Do a Cntrl+F on the name of the twitter widget you just added. find the < /div> at the end, paste the Follow button code there, hit save. Then the Follow button shows up at the end of your tweet stream. check mine if you like it looks nice mattstkc.blogspot.com

    My blogger doesn’t give me the option of HTML. When I past the link from the twitter page I get a message that says it contains illegal characters. Any ideas?

      - Copy the twitter button code
      - Add new HTML/JavaScript widget in your template layouts.
      - Pase the twitter code and save it!
