[twitter-dev] Re: Search API the public alternative to URL count API?
Hi Carlos, I am not sure I understand the relevance of your question. I am planning on using OAuth for authentication. The URL count API (url.api.twit..) does not need authentication. Assuming that with callback you refer to the Javascript callbacks; The processing in question will happen in a backend component and thus wont be able to receive the callbacks?

[twitter-dev] Re: Follower analysis without whitelisting breaks limits?
Thanks Tim. So the point is, we still need to rely on the follower ids list API method if we want to maintain an up to date picture of an account's followers.

[twitter-dev] Re: Data-expanded-url attribute
I have a possibly related problem. We also use an inhouse shortener that returns a 301 redirect, but Twitterbot misinterprets the shortened URLs. The usual search engine bots follow the redirect correctly, as far as I can tell. Each tweet results in a frenzy of 404s from API users who have received the incorrect URL. Mousing over the shortened URL on Twitter.com shows the incorrect URL in the title tooltip. Fortunately for now, it seems we are not subject to t.co wrapping so the original, correct short URLs can be clicked by Twitter.com users. The incorrectly interpreted URL is always the same. We've set it up to redirect to our home page so all is not lost. Any ideas what could be going on here? Thanks, Ken On Feb 14, 2:04 am, ctrand ctr...@gmail.com wrote: Any ideas on this one guys?

[twitter-dev] Streaming API vs. Search API: no API returns 95% of intented tweets
Hi,
this problem was already posted to the twitter4j mailing list [1]. Not
sure if it is an issue with my code, twitter4j or an API issue... user
reported similar problems in the past [2].
First:
I'm doing a 100 tweet search (without paging) every 5 minutes e.g.
against 'twitter search'. I get a set of tweets A - excluding the
duplicates, of course. I get approx 5 new tweets for every 5 minutes,
so 100 tweets as pageSize should be perfectly sufficient to get all
tweets.
Second:
When I'm doing a streaming filter request for the same terms 'twitter
search' then I'm getting a set of tweets B.
The problem is: combining A and B ('C=A v B') gives me a set C where
the count of C is more than 10% larger then A or B, which means that
neither with search nor streaming API I can catch a nearly complete
set of tweets.
E.g. doing this for 3 hours I'm getting 254 tweets (A) for the search
and 257 tweets (B) for the streaming but the combined set C has 337
tweets!
Is this a bug in my code or could this be an API issue?
BTW: I don't assume 100% correctness, I only want something above
90% :) especially for such relatively infrequent terms, where users
can, should and have noticed it.
Regards,
Peter.

[twitter-dev] Twitter app on facebook bug
I seem to have a strange bug with a twitter app on facebook, but as I think that it might be my implementation mistake somewhere I would like to ask you about this. I have a web site where I have installed a plug in enabling me to send post to Twitter. This works fine. I also have a facebook app which extracts all the tweets and updates the status of my fan page. Unfortunately, it stopped working recently and I just wonder whether it is because of the prefix that wordpress plug in puts? I am using Twitter Tools plug in to post blog posts to Twitter and it adds a standard prefix at the beginning of the tweet. The reason why I think that the problem might be in the prefix is that after a normal tweet without the prefix, the next one from the web site gets sent to facebook fine with the prefix, but all the other tweets that go after it don't. Until I take a break with another tweet without the prefix.

Re: [twitter-dev] Streaming API vs. Search API: no API returns 95% of intented tweets
I don't get that big a discrepancy, but I do get different results
from search and streaming. I use streaming for real-time delivery, and
then either search or user timelines to backfill missing tweets. As
long as the flow makes this possible within rate limits this gets me
the greatest number of results, but still not 100%. I accept that 100%
ain't gonna happen. You should get within your desired 95% though.
That is a realistic goal.

Re: [twitter-dev] Streaming API vs. Search API: no API returns 95% of intented tweets
If you examine set C, do they contain matches on fields other than the Tweet
text? To increase recall, search sometimes includes keywords in followed
links and other techniques.
Also, are you getting rate limit messages on the Streaming API?

What should I do to avoid this?

[twitter-dev] Re: Streaming API vs. Search API: no API returns 95% of intented tweets
First your test set is a bit small. Did you take into account the
extra data you will get in your first search api poll? Typically your
first poll will return 100 items then subsequent polls will return
only new data if using since_id and/or dedupping.
Make sure both your poller and stream reader start at the same item. A
trick, if you want to grab as much similar results at possible from
the start is to request only a single item on the first poll (using
rpp=1) (or use only the most recent item of your result) then use this
item to seed your since_id on the following polls. Another idea might
be to start your stream reader first and use the first item returned
by your reader to again seed your since_id in your poller. Also you
can simply ignore this during collection but cleanup your data once
your done collecting and make sure both data sets start and end with
the same item ID.
In any case, if your difference is in fact related to the handling of
the first poll, it will become marginal as your data grow.
I also ran some tests to compare results between both methods using a
single keyword. With result sets of about 15000 ids, both sets are
identical at 98.3%. For testing purposes both my poller and stream
reader only output IDs so I can use cat, sort, uniq, wc and diff to
compare results.

Hi John, hi Adam,

ah, ok. this would explain the differences between C and B (but not
betweet C and A). I'll investigate ...
Also, are you getting rate limit messages on the Streaming API?
no.
I saw track limits (or something) when my keyword was 'java' or a
similar high frequent term.

Hi,
this problem was already posted to the twitter4j mailing list [1]. Not
sure if it is an issue with my code, twitter4j or an API issue... user
reported similar problems in the past [2].
First:
I'm doing a 100 tweet search (without paging) every 5 minutes e.g.
against 'twitter search'. I get a set of tweets A - excluding the
duplicates, of course. I get approx 5 new tweets for every 5 minutes,
so 100 tweets as pageSize should be perfectly sufficient to get all
tweets.
Second:
When I'm doing a streaming filter request for the same terms 'twitter
search' then I'm getting a set of tweets B.
The problem is: combining A and B ('C=A v B') gives me a set C where
the count of C is more than 10% larger then A or B, which means that
neither with search nor streaming API I can catch a nearly complete
set of tweets.
E.g. doing this for 3 hours I'm getting 254 tweets (A) for the search
and 257 tweets (B) for the streaming but the combined set C has 337
tweets!
Is this a bug in my code or could this be an API issue?
BTW: I don't assume 100% correctness, I only want something above
90% :) especially for such relatively infrequent terms, where users
can, should and have noticed it.
Regards,
Peter.

[twitter-dev] Re: Streaming API vs. Search API: no API returns 95% of intented tweets
Hi Colin, hi John, To increase recall, search sometimes includes keywords in followed links and other techniques. This is indeed the case. and 'twitter search' is a lot in urls ala: http://search.twitter.com/search?q=jetwick that is where the big differences came from. Can I turn off this 'feature'? It shouldn't take into account that. Although the title of the web site should taken into account ... like it is done in jetwick ;) I'll investigate for other keywords now. Typically your first poll will return 100 items then subsequent polls will return only new data if using since_id and/or dedupping. I already removed these early tweets, of course ... I also ran some tests with which keywords do you ran the tests? For testing purposes both my poller and stream reader only output IDs so I can use cat, sort, uniq, wc and diff to compare results. Yes, I went the same way :) Regards, Peter. -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk

Neither the 'before' case nor the 'now' case is correct. You'll only receive the 400 if none of the users specified have authorized your application.
