not just oAuth and it's not just Twitter - mobile and desktop

What's the "best practice" here? Personally, I'm leaning towards a new

Hmmm ... there are search widgets you can get lots of places. I have
some from HootSuite on my WordPress sites. What you can do is
1. Get a HootSuite account
2. Create a Search column with the keywords for the brand
3. In the upper right, there's a "<>" button. Press that and you'll
see some HTML
It now appears to be working with max_id. I was in the process of
gathering data to fill out an issue report when it failed to fail. ;-)
Murphy, where are you? ;-)

I'm testing this and it looks like I can reproduce an "Internal Server
Error" when I use the call
_uri: !!perl/scalar:URI::http
http://api.twitter.com/1/search.json?rpp=100&page=1&q=&geocode=40.645%2C-124.763%2C100mi&max_id=7678398633
_uri_canonical: !!perl/scalar:URI::http
http://api.twitter.
Somebody's corollary to Murphy's Law: "When a programmer writes logic
into his Perl Twitter app to dump the handle and error objects in YAML
on an error, so he can send the data to Twitter, he stops getting
'Internal Server Error' from Twitter." ;-)

Oh ... I thought I was doing something wrong. But I was getting
"Internal Server Error", not 404. Here's what I was doing (Perl, but
the HTTP should be obvious):
q => $search_string,
geocode => $geocode,
rpp => 100,
max_id => $max_id,
page => $page

I'm doing desktop apps and I think the PIN workflow is just fine as
is. If there are security reasons why something else is needed, I can
see changing it. But it's no big deal for me to fire up a browser,
push the "allow" button, double-click on a PIN, and then CTL-C / CTL-
SHIFT-V into a Konsole w
I've been getting this too. I had a long-running process that was
going back in time paging through Twitter search data (search API). It
was using oAuth. I just assumed I had gotten all the data search was
willing to give me and aborted the process after three consecutive
failures.
If you want me
I've found Twitter's support of freelance developers to be *way* above
average. Compared to Apple, Microsoft, or even Google, Twitter is a
joy to work with. There's a sense of community here that I rarely see
outside of pure open source projects like PostgreSQL, Perl, Ruby and
Linux.
Well, it seems three of my applications have been inactivated. I
checked through the four rule sets and I don't think I'm violating any
of them, at least not deliberately. I am doing a fair amount of
testing, so I do get rate limited from time to time, especially when
testing the rate limiting resp

I just saw the announcement on Twitter-API-Announce about migrating to
streaming. I'm curious about a couple of things:
1. "If your application polls for keywords, mentions, is whitelisted
on the Search API, or makes more than perhaps 10 queries per minute,
you should begin your migration to Strea
correctly.
And I haven't found any documentation on "x-ratelimit" anywhere - I
got that insight via breakpoints in the Perl library using Komodo. ;-)
