Twitter is a very popular micro-blogging service and I always admire its website design. That’s very simple and beautiful. So I decided to develop a simple twitter-like theme to all WordPress bloggers and twitter fans around the world.
Twitterize is a free 2 column Twitter style WordPress Theme. It looks very similar to Twitter.com from the front end and offering Admin options at the back end. With the theme options in the admin menu you don't need to edit .php files manually to do basic theme adjustments.
Main features of the theme:
- Simple and beautiful web typefaces in use.
- 2 columns of fixed width.
- Widget Ready.
- Fast loading structure
- Social icons integrated
- Admin options page to adjust theme settings
- Twitter and RSS button pre-installed
- Well-commented CSS and theme PHP files for flexible customization.
- Multi-browser compatibility. Tested under modern w3c compliant browsers. Firefox, Safari, and Chrome.
- Free of cost
