Re: [twitter-dev] Question about TT's

2010-10-12 Thread Emerson Damasceno
Hello there. Obviously this is not the proper place, but since it's being a
lot of talking in Brazil, have you heard anything about Twitter monitoring
the TT's for political reasons?
In Brazil some are saying the Hashtag #dilma13 was somehow pulled off the
TT's (it's a brazilian Candidate to Presidential Pools).
Also as a Journalist I wonder if that is somehow possible (since Twitter is
able to accept a promoted TT) but as far as I know, not Stop a Trending (if
really trending).
Anyway, thank you all again

 I noticed that the value of source field looks somewhat strange:
 source:a href=\http://www.echofon.com/\; rel=\nofollow\Echofon
 \/a,

 Why in the world would you have an html string as a value and on top
 of than why do you include the rel=nofollow tag?

 This just looks wrong, not structured.
 The right way whould have been to represent the source as an object
 with fileds: name, url, like this:

 source:{name : Echofon, url:http://www.echofon.com},

 Usually you try to pre-parse everying for us, but in the case or
 source, we have to do extra parsing to extract values of title and url

 Will you fix this soon?

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Get username from Twitter API

2010-06-28 Thread Emerson Damasceno
Hello there,
I'm speaking on behalf of a third-party Brazilian site that wishes to use
OAuth, I ask you these following questions:
1. The site is a Get more Followers kind. In the past had been some issues
using OAuth, so the site discontinued that.
2. Is there any problem for this kind of service after the Change to OAuth,
on June 30th?
3. If so, what exactly would be necessary to avoid those reported issues?

I remain waiting for your answer.
Thanks a lot.
Kind yours,

  Hi Thomas,
 
  There are a few ways you retrieve this information. When you are on the
  final leg of your OAuth transaction (exchanging a request token for an
  access token), part of the response that you get back includes the user
 id
  and screen name for the authenticating user:
 
 
 oauth_token=819797-Jxq8aYUDRmykzVKrgoLhXSq67TEa5ruc4GJC2rWimwoauth_token_s­ecret=J6zix3FfA9LofH0awS24M3HcBYXO5nI1iYe8EfBAuser_id=819797screen_name=e­pisod
 
  (Notice both screen_name and user_id keys)
 
  You can also make an OAuth authenticated call tohttp://
 api.twitter.com/1/account/verify_credentials.xmland receive the
  information you're looking for back in either XML or JSON format.

   Hi all,
 
   I have created a Twitter app using oAuth for authentication.
 
   However, I cannot find any info on how I can retrieve the user's
   username in order to get his details. By user, I mean the one that
   granted my app permission and for whom the app is making the API calls
 
   Thank you
