Hi all, this questions might have been asked already, but a quick search in this mailing list did not lead me to a clear response... so I apologize if this topic was discussed in detail already.
My question: - if a tweet is retweeted several timese, e.g. tweet X is retweeted by my friend A and my friend B, it is likely these retweets are not taking place the same time. - my assumption and question is if the 2 retweets in this case show up as two tweets in the home timeline. What troubles me is how I can detect that a tweet was retweeted. I intend to save the last pulled statusId and then just pull tweets from the home_timeline from the last statusId. I hope to get the 'new retweets' as they happen as new people are retweeting. If the api will aggregate the retweets under the stausId of the original message, I will not be updated of new retweets in this case. On the other side, if a new retweet will add the original status a second time (possibly with the new total retweets, e.g. several retweet_details) then I track the retweet count. What do you think? Cheers Sven
