A twitter link back addition

Last modified: December 12, 2007 - 22:17

I took this apart as an exercise in grabbing stuff from the db and added the link information. Really basic, but it's my first shot at something like this:

<?php
// Adapted from http://drupal.org/node/151185

$fid = 1; // My feed id
$limit = 5; // Number of tweets in the list
$result = db_query('SELECT link, description, timestamp FROM {aggregator_item} WHERE fid = %d ORDER BY timestamp DESC LIMIT 0,' .$limit, $fid);
while(
$row = db_fetch_object($result)) {
    print
'<p class="my-twitter-status"><a href="'.($row->link).'">'.substr($row->description, 5).'</a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class="my-twitter-status-time">'.twitter_ago($row->timestamp).'</span></p>';
}
function
twitter_ago($timestamp){
  
$difference = time() - $timestamp;
  
$text = format_interval($difference, 2) . " ago";
   return
$text;

}
?>
