[twitter-dev] Re: Automated Tweets

2009-10-29 Thread Jelle De Laender

So it only look at the previous tweet from that user? Or the previous  
tweet send by your application (via the API) for that user?
So for example: If you have 2 static messages A and B, and your app  
posts tweet A, B, A, B, A, B, ... it shouldn't be a problem?

My webapp can tweet 2 static tweets (per user) when an event occurred.  
Something like an alert/notification system that can optional tweet a  
message for the followers.
I noticed that my tweets aren't post successfully (I'm speaking about  
2-3 tweets per month per user, so no high number).
I found this thread and I read that you can't post duplicated tweets,  
quite stupid since my users can enter a custom message, so this  
message will be static.

At the moment, as temporally fix, I add a random and unique string to  
the end of the tweet, just to be strange my tweet will be post  
successfully, but this isn't nice...

 Hello,

 Currently we discard a tweet if it is an exact duplicate of the
 previous tweet, however we still return a success code (200). We are
 planning on changing this so it will return an error code when a tweet
 is not posted.

 What is the criteria for dupliate tweets? then how the polling
 applications works? they may have several tweets with similar text?

 Hello,

 I have an application that sends out a Tweet when a user Authorizes
 the Application and asks a Question to a particular user. Does  
 Twitter
 block continous sending out of a Tweet within a time period? I am
 doing testing of the application and whenever I try to do a Update
 Status - it returns the ID of the last Tweet that I made from the
 account. Did my Consumer Key/Consumer Key get blocked, or will  
 Twitter
 not allow the same tweet to be posted in a certain time period?

 I also develop an application that sends tweets taken from  
 plaintext.  So
 far, I found experiences that twitter doesn't allow consecutive  
 tweets that
 are identical.

2009-08-09 Thread Jelle De Laender

Well,

To be honest.

I don't experience any problems.

I can login on Twitter.com via Safari 3 (Mac),
I can post tweets,
I can read tweets from my friends,
I can search
I cannot change my profile-picture (results in a 'Bad Request')

I also use Tweetie. The Mac-app.
This app works perfect with 2 accounts.
I can login, see tweets, post tweets, perform search-commands on twitter

I use also TwitterFon for iPhone.
I can login, I can see tweets etc

So, I don't notice anything from the problems. (hard to say, but it's  
the truth).
only place I notice the problems are in this maillist.

At the moment, I tried the web-app ' http://almost.at ' and it jut  
works ( http://screens.delaender.net/986d874a914206d71971cfad30135758.png 
  )

So at my side: no big problems with twitter.

Note: I'm from Belgium

Kind regards
Jelle,

 99.9% of login attempts simply don't work at all in Firefox 3.5, they
 just redirects to blank https://twitter.com/sessions page
 If by some fluke it does actually login I can't logout to change
 accounts.

 Logins work in Safari, but posting statuses only does occasionally,
 I've tried to update a profile picture earlier, selected my image, hit
 save... waited... nothing... came back and hour later and the page was
 still trying to load.

 Logouts won't work in safari either. Safari can’t open the page
 “https://twitter.com/logout” because the server unexpectedly dropped
 the connection. This sometimes occurs when the server is busy. Wait
 for a few minutes, and then try again. - I've been trying since
 thursday.

 paging works... sometimes
 search works... sometimes

 My oauth app was working fine until I wanted to logout and change
 users... now I can't reauthorize/relogin

 @$%$ those morons who thought it was a good idea to attack that one
 random dude in Georgia cause this whole mess.



[twitter-dev] Re: Can't change application settings

2009-08-08 Thread Jelle De Laender

I don't know if it's related but I've created a new twitter account  
last night (personal usage),
and I can't change my image (via de website).

I had first an image (500x500px, 600KB) - it tooks about 1 hour to  
load ('connecting...' ) and I aborted it.

I've rescalled it to 300x300px and some compression (jpg etc), 50KB.
After uploading, I got the 'Bad Request' error (see: 
http://screens.delaender.net/a10976e11a9052e228b42d13cfc53325.png 
  ).

Maybe it's related.

 I am not yet sure whether this is related, but over the last 24 hours
 we have had complaints from customers who cannot themselves update
 their profile image after we had unsuccessfully tried to overlay their
 image.

 The affected accounts are:

 legs501
 dodgyscouse
 ava3leigh

 I do not see anything special about these accounts and wondered
 whether you could confirm whether there is an issue at your end in
 relation to this.

 I should point out that we have overlaid 150,000 images before last
 night without hearing about this issue, so it does feel like a small
 edge case has changed.
