Clickable: http://TweetBoard.me Oops - it looks like Twitter might be down, or this machines Twitter API limit has been reached.

Ok this should be fixed now.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I changed the URL to include my name instead of what's-'er-face's and the page didn't update. Probably true of every user, but I'm @ColinTheMathmo Loading it in an entirely new window gives what I assume is my page, but there's no data in it.

Try now: http://tweetboard.me/#!/ColinTheMathmo

That works - now at dinner - will check out more thoroughly later.

Apart from the logo, did you design the site yourself? Start off with CSS from somewhere else? Nicely done, Justin. Header you talk about it with impatience on Techzing :)

Yes I did all the CSS & graphics from the ground up :)

I like it, what will you do to remind me to get back after a few days when you have stats about my account? (@thanpolas)

There is nothing to remind users as of yet... but that's a good thought!

Justin the L&F of the site is brilliant... you really nailed a nice design here with the perfect data density mixed with visual flash.

Very very nice work. I am no twitter power user, but I really like the interface.

I have been thinking of making a similar dashboard for work (much like GeckoBoard) but I wanted to roll my own as a way to learn JQuery and CSS ...

I see from your comments that it's a JQuery impl. Great work!

Thanks for the inspiration. I need to put my head down and get cranking :)

It's looking pretty great! Although it does seem to load a little slow for me... But I think I'm gonna bookmark this site for future use.

I'm digging the site / idea, great work :)

Turn this into a chrome extension, or a Mac / Windows Live Wallpaper, and it would really fly!

pretty cool, would be nice if you could make the widgets movable (drag & drop)

It seems that you're starting to build a really powerful tool. Let me recommend changing the position of some elements. For example: - I would put Followers, Following, Listed & #Tweets in the sidebar, that's because those numbers don't change so often. - I would also remove the time of day in the page. I think is an overkill.

Hope that helps :) Germán
