/**
* Searches the Twitter API for recent tweets about the passed in search string. More importantly formats the resulting tweets

* You also need to possibly includ the Twitter javascript call somewhere to use this method and resulting HTML code. Read the Twitter
* documentation: https://dev.twitter.com/terms/display-requirements

* @return null
