[phpug] Re: PHP API for Twitter...

[James McGlinn]

Hi Karl,     Anyone aware of a nice, simple API based in PHP for posting to Twitter?       One of my clients is trying to automate the posting of Tweets when they update their product catalogue, ensuring their clientele get the fastest updates... At Eventfinder we have a few Twitter accounts running.  Our main account is posted to automatically from our CMS when news items or competitions are posted: http://www.twitter.com/Eventfinder Then we have feeds for Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch that are automatically updated when promoters post events in those cities: http://www.twitter.com/Eventfinder_AKL http://www.twitter.com/Eventfinder_WGN http://www.twitter.com/Eventfinder_CHC We used the excellent PEAR packages Services_Twitter.  You can download it from the PEAR website [1] or even more easily install it straight from the command line: sudo pear install Services_Twitter-beta The interface is relatively simple to implement within your own code - drop me a line if you need a hand.
