TROUBLESHOOTING:
------------------

All error messages are logged in the Template Parsing Log. If you have no output, or unexpected output, enable the Template Parsing Log in your Output and Debugging Preferences.

Even though this tag has its own caching mechanism for retrieving the timeline from Twitter.com, do not forget that you can further increase performance by using Tag Caching
