How to get a RSS feed from a Twitter account

So it seems that Twitter has killed RSS feeds (I'm not sure what that has to do with implementing OAuth), but fortunately, there's an easy workaround.

You can get an RSS feed by querying another URL for the desired user. For instance, to get the RSS feed for user ggreenwald, you can find the feed at this url: http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/ggreenwald.rss
