Consumer electronics manufacturer, Samsung, says it is set to launch a Twitter widget on Internet@TV, an Internet-based TV widget service which it announced at the Consumer Electronics Show in January and which is based on the Yahoo! Widget Engine (note: the service, which is available on Samsung's LED 6000, 7000 and 8000-series HDTV sets, as well as on the company's 6- and 7-series LCD screens, offers a range of JavaScript- and XML-based mini-applications, including widgets for Flickr, Yahoo! News, Yahoo! Weather, Yahoo! Finance, USA Today, YouTube, eBay and Showtime Networks). The new Twitter widget, which will be offered free-of-charge, is expected to allow viewers to, among other things, use their remotes to send and view tweets about programs as they watch them.
