Shows a random tweet from a Twitter account in a sidebar widget.

whiletrue

This plugin displays a random post from a Twitter account in a sidebar widget.
The plugin is based on the Twitter API version 1.1 and requires you 
to create a personal Twitter Application on the <a href="https://dev.twitter.com/apps" title="dev.twitter.com" rel="nofollow ugc">dev.twitter.com</a> website. 
Within your Application, Twitter provides two strings: the Consumer Key and the Consumer Secret. 
You also need two other strings, the Access Token and the Access Token Secret, that you can get 
following <a href="https://dev.twitter.com/docs/auth/tokens-devtwittercom" title="this guide" rel="nofollow ugc">this guide</a>. 
Finally, enter all the Authorization string in the widget options box, along with your favorite display settings: your Twitter Widget is now ready and active!
You can use the same Authorization strings for several widgets and multiple websites. 
Just remember to store them in a safe place!
Your PHP environment needs to have the CURL and OPENSSL extensions enabled.

Random Tweet Widget

It does what it claims, with a small memory footprint. I also made it, so my opinion is probably biased.
