User and associated Post

I created an twiiter like app, where friends can post, but i want a include the name of the person who created the post in the list showing all the post.

here is my code

class PostsController < ApplicationController
  def index
    @posts = Post.all(:order => "created_at DESC")

    respond_to do |format|
      format.html
    end
  end

  def create
    @post = Post.create(:message => params[:message])

    respond_to do |format|
      if @post.save
        format.html { redirect_to posts_path }
        format.js
      else
        flash[:notice] = "Message failed to save."
        format.html { redirect_to posts_path }
      end
    end
  end
end
`

Assuming, of course, that the 'user has many posts' association is set, and the user model has a 'username' field, you can do this in your view :

<% @posts.each do |post| %>
  <%= post.user.username %>
<% end %>
