[twitter-dev] 413 errors from streaming api

2010-04-29 Thread Paul Tarjan
I'm connecting to the streaming API with many userids in the filter
param, and quickly went over my URL request length and got HTTP 413.

Can I send post params? How else can I get updates from a large set of
users in a streaming fashion?

Thanks
Paul

   Is there a permanent profile URL for users? Something like

  http://twitter.com/account/profile?user_id=14757201

   I'd like something that is ID based (since users can change their
   short form) but is guaranteed to resolve for a while. Possibly even
   302ing to thehttp://twitter.com/name

   I could use

  http://api.twitter.com/1/users/show.xml?user_id=14757201

   but it is rather long and doesn't return any nice HTML

  You could make a custom TinyURL.
