Transform Twitter widgets into RSS feeds

Hello,
Twitter had dropped its support for RSS Feeds but there is still a solution to this. Twitters have widgets that help you embed timelines on your websites. This solution just simple transforms Twitter widgets into regular RSS by the help of Google Script. The following are the instructions:
In your twitter home page, go to Setting > Widgets and then you create a new widget and publish it. Once the widget is published, take note of the widget ID in which you will find in the URL of the widget. Make a copy of the Google Script and choose Run > Twitter_RSS to authorize and initialize the script. Do this only once. Just then, go to Publish > Deploy as Web App and then click next the “Save New Version” button. Set it to "Anyone including Anonymous" which is under "Who has access to the app" and last hit "Deploy".
Now, Google had create for you a unique URL for your RSS web app.
