[twitter-dev] Is profile_image supposed to be rate limited?
I suspect that the following is rate limited: http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/users/profile_image/:screen_name In the above link it says rate limited: false. My rate limit status says: hourly_limit=150 remaining_hits=0 reset_time=Wed Mar 30 09:37:17 + 2011 reset_time_in_seconds=1301477837 My remaining_hits is 0. If the above API call is not rate limited, why is it returning a 400 code? The error message: Twitter::BadRequest: GET https://api.twitter.com/1/users/profile_image/ChrisFazz.json: 400: error Can someone explain why this is being rate limited? Is the API doc for this call outdated? -- 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

Yeah, changed the URL to this and it works now:

on Twitter's side.

Thanks, this is what I suspected given the amount of time since the last message.

Unfortunately, a fix is unlikely to come. In most of the cases, image size is correct. If it's just about displaying these images in a browser, you can set the image width/height attributes and/or use CSS (that's what we do on twitter.com). Now if you use these images differently and if their size is important for your app, you should add a check/validation step in your process, just like you should sanitize anything you consume to be sure an unexpected value won't break your app. Arnaud / @rno On Mon, Mar 28, 2011 at 2:17 PM, Helliax hell...@gmail.com wrote: A while back, there was a discussion thread about how some profile images did not adhere to the expected profile dimensions due to a one time internal Twitter bug (normal:48x48, mini:24x24, bigger:73x73). http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_thread...

[twitter-dev] Introducing Web Intents
Developers, users, and journalists are finding more creative ways to use Tweets on the web to leverage the power of the network to spread news. In the past it’s been difficult to make these Tweets interactive, requiring you to write an OAuth app simply to attach Reply, Retweet, and Favorite actions to Tweets. Today we’re releasing a simple new addition to the API called Web Intents that makes it possible to make Tweets that you display on the web interactive. Web Intents provide popup optimized flows for all the ways you interact with Tweets and users on Twitter: Tweet, Reply, Retweet, Favorite, and Follow. The new tool makes it possible for users to interact with Twitter content in the context of your site, without leaving the page or having to authorize a new app just for the interaction. Web intents are mobile friendly and easy to implement. For example, here’s how you add Reply, Retweet, and Favorite links to a specific Tweet: script type=text/javascript src=http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js /script pa href=http://twitter.com/intent/tweet?in_reply_to=51113028241989632 Reply/a/p pa href=http://twitter.com/intent/retweet?tweet_id=51113028241989632 Retweet/a/p pa href=http://twitter.com/intent/favorite?tweet_id=51113028241989632 Favorite/a/p Detailed documentation is available at http://dev.twitter.com/pages/intents To see Web Intents in action check out Wordpress.com’s great tool for quoting Tweets in blog posts: Twitter Blackbird Piehttp://en.support.wordpress.com/twitter-blackbird-pie/. Here's a post that uses their tool to quote @jack's Tweets about our 5 year anniversary http://techcrunch.com/2011/03/13/twitters-beginning/.

While platform.twitter.com/widgets.js doesn't yet support HTTPS, you can take the inline pop-up Javascript code featured near the bottom of the documentation (the Optimization section) and store it on your own server to support HTTPS -- with the added benefit of removing an external dependency.

[twitter-dev] Re: Introducing Web Intents
It is so easy for people on the outside to tie together a company's actions into a convenient timeline that doesn't actually reflect the order of events, but the timing of this announcement just screams for a convenient narrative: 1. Ryan tells everyone to stop building Twitter clients. 2. Twitter world explodes and entire tech blogosphere decides that Twitter is at war with developers. 3. Jack announces that he is back and is taking over product direction. 4. Ev announces that he is leaving his role in product direction. 5. This new system is released whose sole purpose is to encourage developers to build clients, and most amazingly of all its documented. I'm sure these are all random events, but it sure looks like a related chain of events to me. Either way, I'm thrilled that you've apparently made it so easy to build client features into apps. That is a huge advance that will reap benefits for Twitter, developers and users. Now maybe you'll decide that the current OAuth system was a mistake, and streamlining that in the same way will open up API development for the masses of coders who have felt locked out by the complexity. BTW, Brian, thanks so much for not warning us about the high bar you expect us to jump over, and how we will be shut off instantly if we miss. That is my favorite part of your announcement. Well done! It is the first major Twitter announcement I've read in many months that didn't send a chill down my spine. - Adam Green Twitter API Developer @140dev http://140dev.com http://2012twit.com On Mar 30, 5:30 pm, Taylor Singletary taylorsinglet...@twitter.com wrote: While platform.twitter.com/widgets.js doesn't yet support HTTPS, you can take the inline pop-up Javascript code featured near the bottom of the documentation (the Optimization section) and store it on your own server to support HTTPS -- with the added benefit of removing an external dependency.

[twitter-dev] Re: Is profile_image supposed to be rate limited?
As per the your hourly limit of 150, i will assume that you did not auth. What are you trying to do specifically with this API? Read the notes on the documentation. You might find something there. ;) On Mar 30, 5:35 pm, Christian Fazzini christian.fazz...@gmail.com wrote: I suspect that the following is rate limited: http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/users/profile_image/:screen_name In the above link it says rate limited: false. My rate limit status says: hourly_limit=150 remaining_hits=0 reset_time=Wed Mar 30 09:37:17 + 2011 reset_time_in_seconds=1301477837 My remaining_hits is 0. If the above API call is not rate limited, why is it returning a 400 code? The error message: Twitter::BadRequest: GEThttps://api.twitter.com/1/users/profile_image/ChrisFazz.json: 400: error Can someone explain why this is being rate limited? Is the API doc for this call outdated? -- 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
