[twitter-dev] Re: How do you store the social graph locally?
We're using MongoDB and store them as arrays of integers as provided by the API. That makes for some simple yet powerful queries: http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Advanced+Queries#AdvancedQueries-ValueinanArray Wynn Netherland twitter: pengwynn http://floxee.com http://tweetcongress.org On Sat, Aug 15, 2009 at 9:24 AM, Arik Fraimovich arik...@gmail.com wrote: I was wondering how you store a local cache of the social graph methods results locally in your applications. One obvious solution is to create a two column table of the relations, but in such case how do you update it? Just prune everything of the user you're updating and inserting from the beginning? The other solution is to store the results of the API calls as blobs to the DB and parse them everytime in code instead of by SQL queries. The problem I can see with that is duplication of data, less ability to do smart stuff with the data and other issues. Would love to hear how you implemented it in your apps and other ideas related.

[twitter-dev] Re: twitter developer marketplace
Very cool. Nice work! On Wed, Jul 15, 2009 at 11:57 AM, Peter Denton petermden...@gmail.comwrote: Hello *, First off, this is *not* a launch notice, rather I wanted to get some feedback from the dev community. We were prototyping a marketplace for twitter developers and people looking to hire devs/designers to do twitter stuff. Everything is contained in the twitter eco system, i.e. everything is a tweet. People can post projects for hire, review developers and developers can post a portfolio, skillsets, and reply to projects for hire. Also, not trying to step on toes here. I know someone posted a site a few days ago with a aggregate site. This is more meant to be a replacement location for these types of interactions that occur on this list. If you are interested, please take a look. http://developers.twibs.com/ Thanks Peter -- Wynn Netherland twitter: pengwynn
[twitter-dev] New Twitter dev list
In order to help folks find all of us, I set up a searchable directory on our new Twitter groups platform, Floxee. I took all the data from the Wiki, which I assumed was public info. If you would like to opt-out (or get added) please @ me. http://twitterdevs.floxee.com/ you can drill-down by tag on the list page: http://twitterdevs.floxee.com/list Wynn Netherland Mastermind, Pixel Pusher Squeejee twitter: pengwynn
[twitter-dev] Re: Sign in with Twitter - Flow chart error?
If you want to give your users the ability to use multiple twitter accounts with your service, Authorize allows them a chance to switch accounts during the login flow. We consciously do that on a couple of our apps.

This callback appears to be identical to the authorize response. Is there an error with the flow chart on the Sign in with Twitter page that indicates an authenticate callback will include the access token and token secret? The flow chart was created before oauth/authenticate was added. I'm sure that Twitter will update it now that it has been pointed out. 2. I understand that the advantage of using the authenticate process is that if a user has already authorized an application, they don't need to do it again. Is there any reason to use the authorize process instead? It seems that apps would benefit from always using the Sign in with Twitter authenticate flow. I don't know why more sites don't use authenticate instead of authorize. I think mostly it is by not knowing about it and random TOS issues.

[twitter-dev] Re: Changing domains for image hosting
Hi, Doug, Thanks for the heads up and all the hard work to keep us in the loop. Any plans to offer something like: http://twimg.com/pengwynn so people can always have my latest avatar regardless of the filename?
