Any alternative way to populate real time content in webpage other than jQuery

Background: I have a webpage that lists latest 30 tweets from twitter. But every time I am calling jQuery ajax function to get the latest tweets. But this will be kinda overload to server and bandwidth issue I think.

I need an alternative solution for this . Is that possible with any other method

I am not sticking with jquery all the time, if php can do that ,great its enough. But how the client side will manage the refreshing the content

Your question is not related to jQuery, jQuery is merely a client-side javascript library.

If you don't want to do ajax request all the time, look into Websockets and/or longpolling techniques. This is how, for example, facebook implements its chat.

Good luck!
