Stuart,
Shai is referring to the core aggregator module. Once you enable it and the permissions, if you go to Content Management > News Aggregator > List you will read the following help message:
"Thousands of sites (particularly news sites and weblogs) publish their
latest headlines and/or stories in a machine-readable format so that
other sites can easily link to them. This content is usually in the
form of an RSS feed (which is an XML-based syndication standard). To display the feed
or category in a block you must decide how many items to show by
editing the feed or block and turning on the feed's block"

Hello Shai,
Many thanks for your reply.
I've set up the aggregator and it seems fine but what I'd like it to do is
just show the most recent twitter update in a block on my right sidebar. If
you go to my website at the moment www.stuartlawler.ie/ you'll see that the
'Feed aggregator' link appears in the navigation and if possible I don't
want it there.
I had configured the block to appear on my right hand sidebar but not sure
if I've done something else wrong. Can you give me any more suggestions?
Many thanks,
Stuart.

Stuart,
If your purpose is to show your Twitter posts on your web site, the simplest
way of doing that is via Drupal core's Aggregator module.
Every Twitter account has a public feed associated with it and you enter
that feed address into the Aggregator module..
