Question about Twitter

[lishiguang]

This question is a technical question and I'm hoping there are web developers here who can answer my question.

Is there a quick way to display the number of people being followed, the number of followers, and the number of updates for specific Twitter accounts in plain HTML?

I am a PHP/MySQL developer so I would appreciate a solution in PHP.

I'm assuming this will involve some use of Twitter API.

The API is really friendly to 3rd party apps. I suggest you google the subject, blog search and twitter search it. You'll get a good breadth of the information out there.

While I spend time digging out the necessary information on APIWiki@Twitter, I was hoping someone could give me a clear answer before I find a solution myself =) I've never worked with Twitter API before. But anyways, I wrote my own Twitter PHP Parser that will only provide the information I need.

Cheers.
