[twitter-dev] Re: Posting non-English Characters using OAuth
I have tried two things to get my non-english characters status update to work: 1.) Using meta tag in the head as meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8 / 2.) Using utf8_encode for status and posting None of the above works. I get incorrect signature trying to post non-english characters. English characters works fine. I am able to update non-english status with direct status posting from cURL, problem is with oAuth..

[twitter-dev] expanded geocoding APIs
Hi everyone. I've been working on a twitter app with a small team for about half a year now that is focused on geocoding and mapping of tweets. Work so far has been done with dummy data, since the geocoding APIs aren't available yet. I've been looking at how I might use the upcoming APIs to access real twitter geo data, but it doesn't seem possible to get the data that we need. Right now in our test application we have a database of fake tweets that include lat/lon coordinates. This allows us to do queries for specific regions, periods of time, etc. For example, we need to know how many tweets were made within a certain rectangular area (someone's mobile screen) within the last hour, week etc. Right now I can get all of the tweets in one query, and then perform clustering to display them on a map. I cannot see anything in the upcoming APIs that allows me access to this sort of data. I've looked at http://search.twitter.com/search.json?geocode=40.757929%2C-73.985506%2C25km, but that only gives tweets within a certain radius, and only up to 100 at a time. This isn't practical when I need to identify on a map where perhaps thousands of tweets have happened over an extended time period. I've looked elsewhere and can't see anything that would help our situation, save the firehose. I know it says don't contact twitter about access, they'll contact you, but there is no way to launch our app without access to it. I would love to hear any suggestions people might have as to how I could perform the queries I need to perform, or perhaps alternative techniques I have neglected to think of.

The sample resource is just that, a sample. The default access level quite a lot of data. You can also request a higher sample (the gardenhose) if your project needs a higher proportion of the statuses.

I believe in that case the url is just truncated and gone. I believe this only works when shortening it with bit.ly still wouldn't make the tweet fewer than 140 characters. Though it seems unfortunate to lose the url, in a sense you aren't missing data because *no one* gets that url so ultimately it doesn't really exist :) I'd imagine this is fairly rare, yes?

There is, in a sense, an API for resolving a list id by passing in a slug. It's the show resource for a list.

That means using the slug in the url for resources to operate on lists requires the onerous task of validating that the slug for the list you are about to do something with hasn't been updated since the last time you stored its slug. What a nightmare :-) Every list also has an id. This value won't change. We'll be changing the API to replace all instances of a list slug in urls to be list ids instead. * Consistent names The terminology we've used thus far for people you follow with a list is members. The terminology for people who are following a list is subscribers. We're going to mirror the terminology used for users and change it to followers and following respectively.

[twitter-dev] API Wiki - Cannots per Method
Hello all, I have been working in my spare time on creating a list of things you cannot do per method in the api. Basically, I went back through many questions from the dev group and see a lot of questions were basically the result of people not knowing the rules of the API. So they would ask Can I do this? ad someone would answer No. So I devised a solution along the lines of lists per method of things you cannot do. One example would be: - You *cannot* modify the source parameter (i.e. from web) without registering your application in *Twitter oAuth* It occurred to me results would be better if I created a simple system where the community could go to a page and add cannot items to a list, per method, and in the end Ryan and Alex would have nice additional content to add, for both human reference and search. Before I get too far along, I wanted to see if the community would participate in this. i.e. would you actually take 10-15 minutes and add items to a list of a method you know well. I know Alex has expressed interest in these lists being developed, so its not going to be a wasted effort, however, without any participation, it wont be of much help. As always, this is an effort to help reduce noise/redundancy on the list -- not an app. We are in the process of launching a new service, so it would be approx 3 weeks from now, when I would have something for people to use. Cheers Peter
