What happens if you plug in your callback URL locally into a browser?
Same result, or does the page successfully load?

Hi,
I am trying to wrap my mind around OAuth, and I am not sure I understand the
subtleties.
Is it possible to make OAuth authenticated requests from browser
*directly*to the Twitter API? Is it a safe recommended way?
Or do all API requests have to go through an application-specific server, to
There are no app-specific servers. With OAuth, instead of passing user
credentials, you use YOUR consumer key and consumer secret which identifies
your application.
You get an access token after the user has allowed your application to have
access to their account. You will then use that access

By credentials, I meant the OAuth tokens, consumer keys, etc.
Wouldn't they be visible to the browser/desktop-client? And hence, couldn't
they be copied and reused by somebody so determined?
Personally, I think the chance of this kind of attack would be rare and
limited. I just wanted to
Okay, what's the point of this, anyway? Am I missing something on the
reason why you would want to artificially inflate the number of followers
you have? Is there some sort of spam or ad pay going on here?

Not necessarily the tokens, but the consumer keys could be extracted. This is

hi tim.
the crossdomain.xml file is now open an unrestricted to search. in
the future, as part of the migration to api.twitter.com for API
endpoints, we may consider relaxing a crossdomain.xml policy on that.
John I'm with others here that this represents a significant change to

Yeah. :\ I've seen this done on other follower increase sites. No
clue how well it works
or the quality of followers you gain. I'll pass on it.

I've just started adding Lists to Hahlo.com and found this same thing.
Based on the description in the docs I was expecting:
/user/lists.format to be just the lists the user created
/user/lists/subscriptions.format to be the lists the user created +
those they are following (as it is on
Hi everyone
I'm integrating the LISTS methods to my as3 library at the moment and
noticed that updating a list works but will return the twitter error
page (you know: Something is technically wrong.. blah blah).
Thought i'd let you guys know :)
Please keep discussions on list.
The issue clearly is one at your end, if you get the same results by
going directly to the URL. You can't rely on anything GoDaddy says,
their support is 100% full of idiots.
Were it me, and I couldn't undo what I'd done, I'd probably create a
fresh web root,
Hi,
I began to work with twitter API recently and need to get trends by
location. I think many applications have implemented this function.
Since twitter API provides geocode parameter to return tweets by
location, is there any parameters that trends can use? Or if not, what
can I do for this?
Thanks Raffi for doing this. Honestly, I really really thank you for
this. I would love for the Twitter API team to engage with RIA client
providers on establishing open, but secure cross-domain policy files.
I know that since crossdomain.xml isn't a standard, each RIA client
provider is
Andrew,
Do you mean to manually go to the page on my site that Twitter
redirects you to after performing OAuth, and plug in the OAuth token
into the URL?
If so, that did nothing either. The site still hung.
Thanks,

What happens
Seem to be losing direct message emails, the DMs are received on
Twitter but no emails get sent. I believe this was happening last week
too.
Whether you plug your token in or not shouldn't matter -- the callback
script should fire when you call the URL, regardless. All you're
looking for is a page load here, whether it errors or not.
As I said, the problem is clearly one on your end, if you can't load
the callback page by calling it
