[twitter-dev] Getting tweets of specific location

2009-12-18 Thread dhaval
Hey all

I am hearing about the Geo Location and Geo Tagging since long. But I
want to know how do I use it in my requirement.

I am getting data from the search api. I want tweets which belongs
only to the US. Is there a possible way where I can filter only the
tweets that belongs to the US? Does twitter search api provide such
filtering option? If not then can someone suggest me a solution for
this?

Thanks

[twitter-dev] Twitter Tracking API

2009-11-14 Thread dhaval

Hi all

I am using Twitter tracking API for my project. Currently I am getting
the data and storing it as a file. Then I read the file and insert the
data.

But is it possible that I can add it directly while the request is on
and not storing it in the file?

Thanks

hmm thanks got that way through the search api. I already have the db with

looking for.

Thanks a lot

 not directly -- you could grab
 http://geocoder.us/help/city_state_zip.shtml and then feed those into
 twitter search using the geocode parameter.



 Hey all

 Is there any way I can get all the tweets from a zipcode? Eg:- all the
 tweets from 10019

 Let me know if I can do that.

 Thanks

[twitter-dev] Find username/screenname through email addresses

2009-10-27 Thread dhaval

Hey all

Is it possible to find the screen name of a twitter user from an email
address?

Say suppose an email address is a...@abc.com then what is the
corresponding screen name of the user with that email id if there
exists a registered user with that email.

Please let me know if there is any way to find that out.

Thanks

Subject: [twitter-dev] geolocation API update
To: twitter-development-talk@googlegroups.com,
twitter-api-annou...@googlegroups.com


as some of you may have already noticed, we've started going through the
first steps to get the geolocation API out our door.  there are a few more
steps in the process that i want to share with all of you.

if you start to pull status objects through the API, you'll notice that, for
the majority of them, there is an empty geo/ tag and for the user objects
there is a geo_enabled tag that is set to false.  i say most, because, if
you pull my user object

curl http://twitter.com/users/show/raffi.xml

you'll see that geo_enabled is true for me, and if you pull one of my
statuses from yesterday

curl http://twitter.com/statuses/show/4512367904.xml

then you'll see a fully populated geo object at the end of that status.

status
  ...
  geo xmlns:georss=http://www.georss.org/georss;
georss:Point37.780300 -122.396900/georss:Point
  /geo
/status

for clarification: the geo_enabled will *always* be in a user object
reflecting whether the user has opted-into the geolocation API.  there will
also *always* be a geo tag in the status object regardless of whether
there is a location attached to the tweet or not.  if there is no location,
then the tag will be empty.  if there is a location (as above), then the tag
will be populated.

just to lay out a timeline -- we've deployed for internal testing, and soon
we'll be turning this on for the general audience.

Like you pointed I want the exact number of replies give by or given to the

 Hi all,
 One correction on issue 235. I re-read the original thread and this one
 and there are two issues discussed. The first is that you can only get 20
 results from the replies method. This is the one being fixed by allowing
 count=30 to return 30 results.
 Interleaved in the original email thread, but not reflected in the
 Google Code issue, is a discussion about return the number of replies to a

Re: how to fetch # of twitters and # of replies

2009-01-21 Thread Dhaval Parikh
Well there is a difference what I want is the counts only for the replies
and not the total updates performed by the user.



On Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 10:34 AM, dougw igu...@gmail.com wrote:


 Dhaval,
 To get back to your original quesiont, the number of status updates is
 returned with the users/show method:

 URL: http://twitter.com/statuses/show/id.format
* id.  Required.  The numerical ID of the status you're trying to
 retrieve.  Ex: http://twitter.com/statuses/show/123.xml

  The statuses_count value gives you the number of updates performed by
 that user. I updated your issue to reflect that this method is a great
 home for the @replies count you suggested.
