[twitter-dev] Re: REST API Rate Limiting
Thank you both for the replies. Taylor, I think you just gave me the answer. Yes, I am on a shared hosting and most likely someone else is having another twitter app that he didn't know to limit the requests within an hour(or didn't care). First thing I'll do when I have some spare time will be to read the X-RateLimit and see the problem. Meanwhile I'm thinking about changing host.

[twitter-dev] Stream API responds with 401 when multiple keywords are used
Hi All, I have working code that uses OAuth to connect to the Stream API and filter using keywords. When I supply a single keyword the API works as expected and tweets are returned. What is odd is that when I specify multiple keywords, or keywords that include a # symbol I get a 401 UNAUTHORIZED error. Has anyone seen this before and come up with a successful resolution? I've captured the HTTP headers of both a successful and unsuccessful call and I can't see anything that is different other than the list of tracks contains multiple entries.

Re: [twitter-dev] Stream API responds with 401 when multiple keywords are used
I'd assume that there would be an error in your signature generation. Make sure that you properly url-encode all values before putting them in your base string. Make sure to encode only the correct ones. If you've checked this and it still does not work, please show us the Base String which you use to generate the signature.

Re: [twitter-dev] Oauth issue on iPhone Development - Multiple Users posting to Single Account with No UI
There's some background on this approach here: http://bit.ly/1token On dev.twitter.com we provide a feature that lets you easily get your own access token as the owner of the application. You then utilize that token whenever it makes sense to. We don't have an explicit Objective-C example of this implementation, but I reckon it would be very easy with one of the Objective-C libraries out there.

Does not require authentication, unless the user is protected.
Returns the 20 most recent retweets posted by the specified user. The
user is specified using the user_id or screen_name parameters. This
method is identical to statuses/retweeted_by_me except you can choose
the user to view.

Hi Taylor.
Thanks for the reply!
However I'm looking for at retweets_of_user, instead of a
retweeted_by_user - if that makes sense.
I would like to fetch the retweeted tweets of a given user, not what
he has retweeted from others. :)

GET /1/statuses/retweeted_by_user.{format}
Does not require authentication, unless the user is protected.
Returns the 20 most recent retweets posted by the specified user. The
user is specified using the user_id or screen_name parameters. This
method is identical to statuses/retweeted_by_me except you can choose
the user to view.
Example: twurl /1/statuses/retweeted_by_user.json?screen_name=twitterapi

Wow, just what I was looking for! :)
Do any of you know, if it's possible to fetch retweets of a user
without authorizing as him? Or are they so 'secret' that only the
retweeted user should see them? :)

In my application I would like to show My Tweets, Retweeted with

don't show up via user/mentions.
I'm able to retrieve user/retweets_of_me but in the JSON response
there is no way to tell who in fact did the retweeting.
Can anyone give me a suggestion as to how to solve/implement this?

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: No of statuses extracted by statuses/filter
The only way to get limited is to specify a too broad predicate and go
beyond the allowed proportion of tweets. If you specify too many keywords,
you aren't limited, your connection is rejected. This is all documented on
http://dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api, specifically:

This is very helpful.
John:
You said:
If you don't receive a limit message, you know that you've received
all
possible tweets for the predicate
But:
-The only way to get limited in status/filter is using more keywords
or more users id than is allowed according to access level?
Is there any other way?
-The limit message contains some kind of sum info? (Additionnally,
where can I find the data spec for this limit message and for data
returned by status/filter in general?)
Thanks in advance.

Hi everybody!
Thank you Edward.
I copy paste part of your answer:
[If your filter criteria are sufficiently narrow, you get *all* of
the public tweets with those keywords sent by users who aren't being
blocked by Twitter's quality filter. At least that's what the
documentation has said in the past.]
-Can anyone confirm this?
-I think, taking Edward's approach, I've still the same problem : even
taking a very narrow criteria I can never know what's the total, so
I can'´t know if all the tweets got by streaming are useful or not.
I think I have to remark that I don't need to know an exact total of
tweets in a given moment. What I'd like to know is an approximate
percentage over some approximate total of tweets estimation. I dare to
think it's part of the service providing specification.
I do understand that it can be difficult to exactly define total of
tweets when streaming and having tweets going into Twitter
permanently but not constantly, but some estimated info would be
great.
Thank you all in advance.
Alejandro.

Hi everybody!
I'm designing an app to do some mining over a corpus of tweets.
I think I'll use streaming api, statuses/filter filtering by
keywords.
I'd like to know, before starting development, what is the
percentage
of tweets delivered by this stream over the total tweets
('meaning
total tweets' the total of tweets that have the tracking keywords)
.
This is information is crucial because of statistical confidence:
a
very little sample may not be significant.
Addittionally, Ive been googling and reading a lot for 3 days and
I
can't figure out how i can use different 'level accesses'.
I've readhttp://
dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api_methods#statuses-filter
but how can I use this different levels levels of access?
Thanks in advance!
Regards
Alejandro.
I actually think the answer to *yout* question is, If your filter
criteria are sufficiently narrow, you get *all* of the public tweets
with those keywords sent by users who aren't being blocked by
Twitter's quality filter. At least that's what the documentation
has
said in the past.
But *my* question is, How does one determine the total number of
tweets, for some definition of total?
a. All tweets created, including those that aren't public?
b. All public tweets created, including those from low quality
users
that don't get indexed by search or sent to the filter stream?
c. All tweets sent to the inlet of the filter stream and the various
elevated access level stream?
Remind me again - when does Snowflake go live? I haven't looked at
Streaming data for a couple months.
