Facebook and Twitter both now allow any user the ability to embed Facebook posts and tweets into their own website content, including blogs. This feature makes it easy to reference someone’s social media content that is updated live.
This means that any replies, comments, or other media that appear in conjunction with the post or tweet will also be available in the embedded version as well.
How to Embed Tweets
1. On the Twitter stream, hover over the tweet you want to embed
2. Click on More
3. Click on Embed Tweet
4. Make your option selections, then copy the code
5. Paste the code into the HTML or text version of your content or blog post
