[twitter-dev] Re: getting replies to user if user is not following the replying user
I thought that those type of replies would show up under the replies tab anyway (i.e. there doesn't need to be a relationship between two users (in either direction) for a reply to show up in the replies tab). I could be wrong, or maybe something changed... However, if you head to http://search.twitter.com/ and search for @user you will see all mentions of that user from all public accounts. You can grab the resultant search as an RSS/Atom feed if you like. -Chad On Wed, Mar 11, 2009 at 11:56 AM, Jeff Bishop jeff.bis...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, Is it possible to track replies sent to a user even though that user is not following that person?

Jeff, The search API [1] is drop dead simple. Say you have a search for any @reply or mention to @twitterapi [2]. Changing the search URL to include a format (json or atom) will give you a feed that can be parsed programmatically. For example: http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=%40twitterapi [1] - http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Search+API+Documentation [2] - http://search.twitter.com/search?q=%40twitterapi Doug Williams Twitter API Support http://twitter.com/dougw On Wed, Mar 11, 2009 at 12:16 PM, Jeff Bishop jeff.bis...@gmail.com wrote: I would prefer to get them in a feed like the Twitter API provides (like in a Status node).

I am also wanting to insure that I filter those items that I already processed from the Twitter API. I would rather not have duplicates. It is unclear if the Search API will return to me the Twitter ID values of a tweet to ignore already filtered tweets from the Twitter API.

[twitter-dev] Re: getting replies to user if user is not following the replying user
Jeff, A Search for @replies will return any tweet that contains a reference to the user. The current implementation of replies from the REST API will only return tweets that start with a reference to that user. Thus the result from the search API is the superset of all @replies and public mentions of a user.

[twitter-dev] Re: getting replies to user if user is not following the replying user
Let me give an example: Let's say I am UserA, and I send out this tweet: @UserB @UserC @UserD can't wait to see you this weekend for dinner with @UserE!! Then only UserB will see that tweet in their Reply feed (because the tweet physically starts with @UserB). UserC, UserD and UserE are SOL and won't see this tweet in their Reply feed. They would have to use the Search API to search for themselves to see this tweet and know they were mentioned... make a bit more sense? -Chad On Wed, Mar 11, 2009 at 12:34 PM, Jeff Bishop jeff.bis...@gmail.com wrote: Do you mean if I have something like: @jeff1, @jeff2, @jeff3 then jeff1 will appear but not jeff2 or jeff3? - Original Message - From: Chad Etzel jazzyc...@gmail.com To: twitter-development-talk@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, March 11, 2009 9:32 AM - Show quoted text - Subject: [twitter-dev] Re: getting replies to user if user is not following the replying user On Wed, Mar 11, 2009 at 12:16 PM, Jeff Bishop jeff.bis...@gmail.com wrote: I would prefer to get them in a feed like the Twitter API provides (like in a Status node).
