[twitter-dev] Re: How long until a @reply can be duplicated / repeated?
twitter ignores updates that are an exact duplicate of the previous update. if you post @bob hi! then @bob hi!! you should see both. -chad On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 3:31 PM, Ryan ryanlowderm...@gmail.com wrote: I send the following message: @bob hi! and wait two minutes and send the same message, @bob hi! I only see one message when polling the mentions/replies API. Is there an undocumented interval on how long one has to wait until the second message shows up in the API? Or... how long the user sending the @reply has to wait???

Chad, If Twitter ignores duplicate updates - I would OR would NOT see the updates on a poll of the replies/mentions API?

You would NOT see the duplicate update. Twitter effectively drops the update when it's a duplicate. It's cast into the void. The fail whale noms it. It's a dead parrot :) -Chad On Mon, Apr 20, 2009 at 4:01 PM, Ryan ryanlowderm...@gmail.com wrote: Chad, If Twitter ignores duplicate updates than I WOULD or WOULD NOT see the updates?
