I would like to include a subset of tweets I make on my professional web development site.
Now, twitter provides two applicable widgets:
a profile widget and a search widget
Unfortunately, the profile widget shows everything I tweet (including off-topic tweets that I don't want shown on my site).
On the other hand, the search widget generally only shows tweets that I have made in the last 24 hours, and apparently doesn't search back very far.
Here's an example of the search widget in action on my site: royronalds.com/log.html (showing only one match of what should be many, because that's the only recent match).
And here are the widgets: twitter.com/widgets
Is there any way to create a topic-filtered widget, to show only on-topic tweets?

You can use the RSS feed from Twitter, store the entries in your database (to get past the 24/72 hour limit) and use a #hashtag or similar which you can check for to see if should be published.
How often you check the feed, how purge database entries and how many #hashtags you use is up to you and the amount of time you have.
