[twitter-dev] Re: Date format changed on DMs?

2010-11-23 Thread Rich
It appears on normal timelines the created_at field is Wed Mar 25
22:04:55 + 2009
On DMs it's now formatted Tue Nov 23 16:47:09 UTC 2010 which causes a
number of parsers to fail if they are looking for offsets rather than
timezone codes.

 Has the default date response format changed on DMs, they aren't
 parsing the same now?

 Some notification might be nice?

Thanks Taylor

I'm coding defensively now to actually check for this in future :)

There's a third date format for tweets returned by the Search API.  
Time for me to check my parsers again. There's a Perl module that will  
literally parse any imaginable date format, but it's hopelessly slow  
for the kind of volume Twitter delivers.
