== Frequently Asked Questions == 

= Does the widget show my tweets in real time? =
Yes they're shown in real time, although you have to refresh the page for them to appear.

= How can I modify the styles? =

The plugin follows the standard rules for "ul" and "li" elements in the sidebar. You can set your own style modifying or overriding these rules:
ul.really_simple_twitter_widget { /* your stuff */ }
ul.really_simple_twitter_widget li { /* your stuff */ }

As for the linked username on the bottom (if enabled), you can customize it this way:
div.rstw_link_user { /* your stuff */ }

== Credits ==

The initial release of the plugin was based on previous work of Max Steel (Web Design Company, Pro Web Design Studios), which was based on Pownce for Wordpress widget.

The release 1.2.3 is based on the work of Frank Gregor.
