Glad to see you getting involved and having so much fun Russel!
No, unfortunately there is no RSS feed going into Twitter from this community. What we hope is that Twitter users can use this space to chat and share ideas and resources with one another. There are some new developments which will be released soon which may help to make communities a bit more dynamic :)
