Thanks to our colleagues at The Fresno Bee, we've embedded a cool widget into our story on the California Supreme Court's decision upholding the Proposition 8 ban on gay marriage. The widget provides a near real-time feed of "tweets" from people posting their reaction to the ruling on the Twitter micro-blogging site.

The reaction is coming fast and furious from all quarters. You can find it on the left column of our story at this link. While you're there, register your own reaction by voting in our reader poll.
