By default, Twitter updates will appear to come from Tweetal (as Tweetal is a registered Twitter application). If you want updates to come from a different 'source', you need to register an application with Twitter and provide the settings to the portlet. Fill out this form:   http://twitter.com/oauth_clients/new

Be sure to choose 'client' as the Application type, NOT 'browser'. When user's link their account they will be prompted to enter a code into Tweetal, that will then be verified and their own access token and secret stored as preferences.

Once you have filled out the form, add the key and secret supplied to your application in BOTH portlet.xml and web.xmlas below:

<init-param>
    <name>consumerKey</name>
    <value>YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY_HERE</value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
    <name>consumerSecret</name>
    <value>YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET_HERE</value>
</init-param>

<context-param>
    <param-name>consumerKey</param-name>
    <param-value>YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY_HERE</param-value>
</context-param>

<context-param>
    <param-name>consumerSecret</param-name>
    <param-value>YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET_HERE</param-value>
</context-param>

DO NOT reset these keys without updating the values in the portlet, as the integration will no longer function if they are out of sync (they are essentially your application's username and password).
