    i'm looking for a twitter widget that i can use to follow just one specific user (fingal county council in this case). the twitter one i have on my htc desire doesn't seem to allow you to just select one feed.

    can anyone help out?

    thanks

    I think Tweetdeck will allow you set a column dedicated to one feed.

    Search (on the web version of Twitter) for @(fingal county council in this case) and save the search, in Tweetdeck add column and select this search, then select column for the Widget.

    not the most fantastic interface ever but looks like it might do the job for now. cheers

    ++ edit
    i created a list. i added the user i wanted to follow to it. i created a column involving that list and added it as a widget.

    What app do you usually use? I've been through a lot and have settled on Tweetdeck, it does everything I need without getting cluttered, I may have missed some though.

    the basic twitter for android app does the job for me usually except this time round where i want to keep an eye on one particular person as a widget.
