Actually following on from this, I see @screenName/listName automatically links to the list on the site, so surely we have to be able to call the API using listNames too unless there is a reverse lookup API to convert list id to slug? On Oct 30, 11:31 pm, Rich rhyl...@gmail.com wrote: Well we

It appears that user/lists.xml only shows lists that are created by the user and not those that they follow. Any change coming to that or am I missing a way to see all lists that a user follows? Thanks, Jeremy On Oct 28, 3:00 pm, Marcel Molina mar...@twitter.com wrote: Two additions and two

The update says all requests that produce a list *of lists* will have a cursor option. What about lists of members following/followed on/by a list? If I want to download the list of people following a list, members.xml currently gives only 20 users. Is there a way to ask for more, or to get the

Does calling the status timeline for a list count against rate limit? What I'm thinking of is doing an Ajax widget that auto updates with new tweets from a list every few seconds, similar to how many people use the Search API to do this by hashtag. If the status API request is rate limited this

Marcel, Great changes. A couple of questions: - How long can a list description be? - A title can only be 15 chars - will that remain unchanged? - Will there be a little overlap where memberships and subscribers will still work while people migrate to followers/following? It would be awesome

How does one keep a list up to date for a client without the concept of since_id, like we have for the timeline methods? I look at a lists as just a different timeline (granted one filtered to specific users), but that is how I would expect to view them in a client. From my understanding of

The cursors are for lists of lists and lists of users followed by/following lists. The statuses timeline for a given list takes all the same options you'd expect to manage status timelines. On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 5:43 PM, Naveen knig...@gmail.com wrote: How does one keep a list up to date for
