Draxeiro,
What do you exactly mean by a caching problem? In the plugin as it is right now, there is no caching at all, with every load of the page it will get the last updates from twitter.
So if you meant: a problem because there is no caching, you are absolutely right.
Simple caching is in the next release, almost there. It will store the last update in a local file, and with every load it will look if the file is older than x time (configurable).
You can choose the amount of tweets to show, 1 to 9 for now, in the admin.
The link to the account is not there, nice idea though, maybe in the future ok? For adding a link in the template yourself is indeed an option too...

Soon I need to use a twitter widget on a project for a client.
Couple of questions though:
Firstly, is Frank's plugin having a HUGE caching problem or rather the default Twitter widget?
Secondly, is the plugin able to show more tweets or just the last 2? More would definitely be preferable.
Thirdly, I assume a link to the twitter account can also be switched on? Or does one have to add a seperate link in the template?
And lastly, seeing Rene's last post, I do take it the plugin works when other plugins are installed?
