[twitter-dev] How to store Oauth token and retrieve data using it?
I need to store Oauth tokens in database and use them to retrieve my direct messages and my friends timeline.. I searched in Google and in these forums but I didn't find a full answer for this..I am able to see [oauth_token] and [oauth_access_token] and store it.. Whether these two can be used to retrieve data at later point of time? what exactly I should use to fulfil my requirement? If anyone can point me to a php script it would be great.. -- 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
[twitter-dev] Suggestion : Increasing the replies count (Separating Status updates and replies)
As all of you know users are allowed only 1000 updates in a day(including replies). With more than 145 million people as users there are going to be calls for increasing the status update limit. So instead of increasing the limit ,Twitter can simply allow accounts to send unlimited replies to users who have addressed the tweet to them. Suppose if I am addressing a tweet to someone say @Techcrunch I love your blog and suppose if Techcrunch says @Ramanean Thank you and these tweets(Replies by Techcrunch) should not be counted as part of daily 1000 limit for @Techcrunch as it's more of a conversation between two users rather than a status updates for followers!!! If the reply limits are increased ,this will open endless possibilities of using Twitter for more important messages!! and more interaction among users and it may also be a good revenue earning opportunity for Twitter!! by exploiting this for growth in a completely different way!!! This would do wonders not only for Twitter but also for others and incase of natural disasters also.! -- 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?hl=en

Can anyone answer my questions??
[twitter-dev] Re: Search API rate limit
Matt, What is exact limit..Whether I can write to twitter for whitelisting of the IP? Whether whitelisting of the IP would do any good?

If you are requesting a lot of information from the search API you may want to look at the streaming API instead:http://dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api The majority of search cases can be handled by the default filter limits available through the streaming API.

[twitter-dev] Search API rate limit
I am developing a normal twitter search application Inorder to beat the search rate limit if I ask a user to authenticate whether that would be helpful?

[twitter-dev] Search API -Timezones problem
In Search API ,always the created_at time is getting displayed in UTC,So it creates more problems for me when I am trying to display latest search results as it shows same time for a query Whether there are any plans to display localtime of the user in search api? For E.g http://search.twitter.com/search.json?from=xxx The search results display only GMT time for created_at
[twitter-dev] Re: Recent Places-related API enhancements more to come...
Whether it would be better to use authentication for it?
Thanks

Hi Developers,
Today we're launching some of the functionality around Places that we
announced at Chirp. You can read more about the feature
here:http://blog.twitter.com/2010/06/twitter-places-more-context-for-your
The launch comes with a batch of API enhancements, with a number of further
API additions just around the corner (like creating and updating places,
obviously a crucial component for many implementors).
The documentation in this area is a honestly a bit light at the moment, but
we'll be offering some more comprehensive documentation going over suggested
use cases, flows, and more in the coming days.
What matters most for you:
- GET geo/nearby_places is now GET geo/search, with some added
functionality. This is a companion to GET geo/reverse_geocode, that's ideal
for using in conjunction with a place selection UI.
Read all about it at :http://bit.ly/dvNmYB
- A query parameter called query lets you do textual matching when
trying to find a place
- A query parameter called ip lets you do a lookup based on an IP
address
- You can fine tune results with granularity, accuracy, and the
contained_within parameter, which allows you to identify a place_id
(matching something like a city), and only search for places within that
place.
- place tags in XML output, place attribute in JSON output:
Tweets that have a place_id associated with them can now contain some
additional information not available in the past, including some attributes
that further describe the location.
Some common place/attributes you might start seeing:
- name
- street_address
- locality
- region
- phone
- postal_code
- twitter (a twitter account associated with the place)
- cross_streets
Attribute key names can be variant. These are just some of the attribute
keys you will see, with much more to come.
Here's a quick XML representation of a status with a place:
