Hi. I wasn't happy with the way Twitter's "Moments" aggregates tweets together, so I worked up a different way to place tweets together in a single embed.

Here are a few examples!:

I'd be psyched if this could become a useful tool for web producers, feedback is warmly welcomed. ~Jeff

ugh! I hate tweetstorms[1] I would love it if you could remove the redundant metadata surrounding each tweet except for the timestamp, so the whole thing reads like one continuous piece of text. You could even do a two-column layout and place the timestamp in the left column so the tweets become simple paragraphs with no metadata polluting it [2].

Yes! that's exactly what I though this would be and was excited as I've been tempted to build that myself.
