How To ADD MBL Tweet Ticker Widget in Blogger:

<ul id="newsticker_demo_scroll" class="newsticker"></ul>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="https://mybloggerlab.googlecode.com/files/ticker.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
(function($){
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#newsticker_demo_scroll').newsticker( {
'style' : 'reveal',
'tickerTitle' : 'MyBloggerLab',
'twitter' : 'mybloggerlab',
'excerptLength' : 100, // 100 characters
'sortBy' : 'timestamp',
'reverseOrder' : true,
'scrollSpeed' : 50,
'autoStart' : true,
'slideSpeed' : 1000,
'slideEasing' : 'swing',
'showControls' : true
});
})
})(jQuery);
</script>
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="//html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
- Replace MyBloggerLab with your twitter Username
All Done: Save the gadget by pressing “Save button” and that’s it. Now go ahead and visit the website to enjoy the marvelous tweet ticker widget.
Important TIP:There are three different text transection styles integrated in this ticker through which a person can select only one. By default, we have added a typewriter style to it, but anyone can change it according to his desire needs.
From the Above JavaScript coding Replace reveal with either fade or scroll (Make sure you write them in lowercase letters otherwise the widget would stop working).
