Twitter Feed Sidebar on Landing Page

I have included our company's twitter feed on a landing page, but I am wondering if anyone knows how to manipulate the HTML code so that the feed will only display the 2-3 most recent tweets. As of right now, it displays a long list. Any insight?

Re: Twitter Feed Sidebar on Landing Page

last time I set one up, (and this is ooooold script I'm referencing, but it still works) it was all javascript, and there is one parameter line that will limit how many it pulls, like:
count: 4,   would pull just last 4 tweets.

whole chunk was like:
getTwitters('xxxxxx', {
  id: 'xxxxxxxxx',
  count: 4,
  enableLinks: true,
  ignoreReplies: false,
  clearContents: true,
  template: '%text% <a href="http://twitter.com/#!/%user_screen_name%/status/%id_str%">%time%</a>'
});

You can use the create widget on twitter.com and limit the height to show and let the rest scroll - controls visual but still gives access to the richer history.

Awesome, thank you both! I went back into my widget and changed the height from 600px to 300 px and that worked very well!
