Hi,
http://twitter4j.org/ is shutdown, and meanwhile you can download the latest

Another use case: what about semi-private, hobby clients that do not
generate revenue? If my app is forbidden because it's a client, I'd like
to maintain it for personal use (i.e., just a few user accounts).

Hi all,
I'm using the python-twitter API in order to get Tweets in hebrow.
The API is working, I managed to get the Tweets, but instead of Hebrew
I get Gibberish.
I changed the encoding to 'windows-1255' in twitter.py, but it still
doesn't work.
what else can I do
Thanks!

Mike, a client is one that recreates the twitter experience, or in your
words the primary experience. So I don't consider Instagram or Foursquare
in that group. It's apps that render a user their timeline.
Apps that post into Twitter are great and explicitly called out at the
bottom of the email.

That would sort itself out without the need for Twitter to change their TOS
-- the app would simply remain unpopular and eventually whither away. The

Thanks, Ryan. That helps a lot, and we should all repeat that to anyone who

good.

Scott, I don't think it's ludicrous to think that Twitter may
eventually pull the plug on, say, statuses/home_timeline, effectively
eliminating clients.
If Twitter's concern is ad revenue, all they'd need to do is add a
clause to their TOS specifying that all third-party clients must show
in-line
Highly doubtful that they would do that and they certainly haven't now.

They should insert ads into the stream, and say we can't remove them. That

It has got to do with the nature of the way content is used. We will also
