Hi Mark,In the BoinxTV-Twitter-Composition, we are fetching three URLs from the twitter server:
1) http://twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.xml2) http://[TWITTERUSER]:[[email protected]/statuses/ friends_timeline.xml
3) http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=[SEARCHTEXT]1+2 give a simple to use XML back, which can be fragmented with the Structure-patches. 3 gives back an atom structure. I did an JavaScript to convert this atom structure back to very same XML structure of 1+2 so I could put the result in the same mechanism to display its content.
Find attached a Twitter Sample to give you a starting point. best, Achim Breidenbach Boinx Software

hithanks Achim but perhaps you or someone else from the list can help...I am having trouble with this - it doesnt run for me.I seem to be able to login ok but it doesnt get as far as downloading the xml for the friends timeline. I am not sure how the authentication should work - this does something in the request of the form username:password? Also I would like to search for #tags but the search api only doesnt do xml is that right. I am relatively new to both quartz and twitter so any pointers would help. I am reading the twitter apis etc.regards Mark Quoting Achim Breidenbach <[email protected]>:Hi Mark, there is some sample code at /Developer/Library/Quartz Composer/Examples/Patches/The Twitterverse/ from there I developed a Twitter-Layer for BoinxTV. Feel free to download BoinxTV from http://www.boinx.com/download/ and have a look at it.
