 Hi Ken,

 Few things I would check:

 #1 - is the account that you are using geo-enabled ? You can configure
 this option on the account settings page:http://twitter.com/settings/account
 #2 - I noticed that in your query here, you've specified
 display_coordinates=true with a question mark ahead of it. Since you
 already had a query parameter, you should be joining it by an ampersand
 (same with long)
 #3 - The lat, long, and display_coordinates are all more appropriately
 passed as POST parameters (like you are doing for status

 Your request, given that the user is geo-enabled, might be better executed
 as:

 curl -u username:password -d status=status_text -d lat=32.6626 -d
 long=-115.8471 -d 
 display_coordinates=truehttp://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/update.json

  I'm not sure what's wrong with it. Any chance anyone knows what's up?
