I like this extension, which operates as a toolbar within Dreamweaver, because it takes care of everything in a few steps, and is simple without limiting options. From a design perspective, the extension is fully customizable with CSS, so you can tweak the resulting Twitter widget to perfectly match the site on which it will appear. There are also scores of “follow me” graphics to choose from, letting your clients know they're getting the most modern and competitive look for their money. The widget is pretty easy to configure; all you have to do is provide the account access information, set a limit for the number of tweets you want to appear, and set the widget dimensions. The extension takes care of all the linking, url directing, icon and username grabbing, and so on. If you're uncomfortable with coding, you can still use this extension for pages that want to look hip and get the full benefit from social media and networking. The price on this extension is very fair, as setting this sort of thing up unassisted would be a pretty big undertaking. If you design modern sites, you'll probably get a lot of use out of it, as well. Nice value!
