[twitter-dev] Re: Not able to connect to twitter through Google Appengine, getting Timeouts
@John thanks a lot. 2 things : 1. Requests are still timing out though at a lesser rate, I guess this should die down in some time? 2. Can we prevent this from happening? I know apps from GAE end up misusing the API and your algo blocks the IP. But, won't you be able to whitelist the good apps? So that the next time there is an IP block, the calls where a registered app sends requests, you can allow it to go through? -Nischal On Sep 28, 10:49 am, John Adams j...@twitter.com wrote: We talked with GAE and have resolved this issue. -j On Mon, Sep 27, 2010 at 7:06 PM, nischalshetty nischalshett...@gmail.comwrote: Hi John, Just got news from appengine that it is being blocked. http://twitter.com/app_engine/status/25743996553 Can you please have a check?

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Not able to connect to twitter through Google Appengine, getting Timeouts
The way that Google App Engine handles outbound connections is that many applications share and reuse outbound IPs from a proxy pool. This makes rate limiting much harder and determination of where abuse is sourcing from difficult to determine. The request timing out issue you're experiencing means that there are (possibly) still some IPs out of GAE that are being blocked, or some of your requests are failing.

Re: [twitter-dev] not authorized over and over again
If you save those four keys, you should have everything you need to restore the session. If this does not work for you, make sure that you save the keys properly. For example, you don't want to confuse oauth_token with oauth_consumer_key.

Is it possible that is some user will change his twitter handle, the older twitter handle might be alloted to some other user???

(but not for image posting :P) Idea is i want to store some data corresponding to every twitter user who might join my app. In my database i have a table e.g UserData ---key ---screen_name ---ActualData Now the problem is a user can change his twitter handle on his next visit, i might not be able to pull his data at all. But if i will go with ID, I have to query his screen name again from twitter , i feel that its very messy. So I thought that, Its ok if user will change his screen_name, He will loose his data, I dont care! but i am concerned that what if that screen_name will be alloted to some other user? is that possible? -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk

You can store them in a session/cookie, or simply ask them once they return. A good way to identify the session/cookie would be to use the temporary token which Twitter gives you on request_token.

Re: [twitter-dev] Twitter API - Sample PHP Script
You could start with @Abraham's TwitterOAuth library:
http://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth
You don't need the whole code, just the library itself, and these 2 lines :
$connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET,
OAUTH_TOKEN, OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET);
$connection-post('statuses/update', array('status' = 'Test tweet'));

I already have the oauth keys.
Is there a simple PHP code that will show me how to send a sample

im doing the following:

Twitterh.Secret := consumer secret - hard coded
Twitterh.OAuth_token :=
SettingsFile.ReadString('TWITTER','TOKEN',''); //saved from when i got
the authorization from the user
Twitterh.OAuth_token_secret :=

i got the authorization from the user
after getting the authorization from the user i can do both getting
the statuses of the user and the followees but NOT updating the
status.
after restart of the application, at first try i do succeed to
receive the user's statuses but not his followees' , on second try
(without restart), i can do nothing and all for the same reason: not
authorized
not sure i understood the other reply of re-hashing, hashing of what
exactly? the only place i do some processing is when i ask for
authorization from the user. i want it so once i have it, to not need
to re-ask it over and over again
what am i missing?

There are technologies (primarily natural language / text processing and social network analysis at the moment) that would help a person or business manage an account of this size. However, most such technologies are embedded in social media listening platforms, business intelligence tools, web analytics tools or social CRM tools. In addition most such tools are broader than just Twitter - they connect to Facebook, YouTube, Flickr and other social sites, integrate with email and often connect with search optimization / marketing tools as well. If you want to experiment with these technologies on Twitter, I've put together a virtual appliance containing open source research tools called the Social Media Analytics Research Toolkit. There's not much end-user application-level software there at the moment, but the platform is complete. It's heavy on Perl and R because that's what I know best, but there's a good bit of Python and Java code there as well.

such an account via twitter.com. Are there tools that can render such
an account usable or meaningful? Finally, why the pretense of
following if one will never actually read the users' tweets? Does
Twitter have in mind to adapt the system to this reality?
This is not a rant, I sincerely want to know!
Non taken buddy. Its going about a dutch account on twitter that is
really important for most people and they liked to be followed back.
Olso, sometimes someone unfollows and then its not neccessary to
follow them.

[twitter-dev] Re: using twitter4j and Oauth. Getting 403 (for an art related app) after the 200+ tweets
Thank you for getting back. I don't get any error message, just the 403 added to the number of seconds that my processing code tracks. the 200+ was in a 2 days time frame. Twitter's limit is way about that. the tweets are very similar, because they are all about hugs, but i had conveniently added a time stamp so that they would all be different. you can see them in my @bomboniahugs account. any idea on how should i proceed? do twitter dev team respond to a 403 [unfair] issue? thanks again! i need the project working for a wearable symposium in Seoul !!!

I recommend following up with a...@twitter.com providing them as much information as you can -- including all IP addresses you are issuing requests from. There may be more of an error message in the 403 you are receiving, but your libraries/framework/programming language may be making it difficult for you to ascertain. Without that information, it will be difficult to know exactly what might be going wrong. Taylor On Tue, Sep 28, 2010 at 11:57 AM, bombonia bombo...@gmail.com wrote: Thank you for getting back.

[twitter-dev] User Streams goes Production, Site Streams adds Home Timelines
User Streams = After an uneventful beta test period, the User Streams feature of the Twitter Streaming API is now in regular production. As with all production APIs, material changes will be pre-announced and non-backward-compatible changes will be avoided. Developers may release products against the production endpoint at http://userstream.twitter.com/2/user.json. While User Streams is most useful for Desktop Clients, experimentation in other use cases is encouraged. Note that service integrations, such as websites and other server-based systems, must not open more than a very small number of User Streams. Instead, services must use Site Streams. Follow the product selection guide, http://dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api#products to select the correct product and avoid access interruptions. Access to User Streams on betastream.twitter.com is now unsupported, and the beta test endpoints will be disabled in a few days. Home Timelines = Site Streams and User Streams now support the with parameter to control the delivery of home timelines. This parameter currently accepts two values: users or followings. When set to users, only messages targeted directly at a user will be delivered: * Statuses created by the user * @mentions and Direct Messages sent to the user * Retweets and favorites of the user's statuses * New followings by the user * New followers of the user * User's profile updates When set to followings, the stream will also include: * Statuses and retweets created by any of the user's followings * @mentions from any of the user's followings, subject to the setting of the replies parameter Site Streams defaults to users while User Streams defaults to followings. These differing default values may be confusing, but were chosen to retain backwards compatibility. We recommend that you explicitly set this parameter to avoid confusion and future compatibility problems as we refine this API.

[twitter-dev] New Tweet button, counturl, and searches
I am attempting to implement the Tweet button on a blog network and have run into an annoying problem. Like pretty much every other blog, we're using a URL shortener (bit.ly Pro, with the domain sbn.to) for our tweets. The tweet button correctly increments for every time it is pressed, but when you click on the count to see the tweets, there are always no results, regardless of how many times the article was tweeted. As a random example, this article: http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/2010/9/26/1712470/arizona-california-final-pac-10-crazy The url is http://sbn.to/dB76xp and the counturl is http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/2010/9/26/1712470/arizona-california-final-pac-10-crazy. We're using the escape() method from the Ruby CGI module to do our encoding. 5 tweets. but when you click on the number 5, Twitter attempts to search for the counturl and comes up empty. If you instead search for the url, you get matches. The same thing happens when logged into Twitter using an account that has newtwitter, an account that has oldtwitter, and not logged in at all. I notice that we're not the only ones having this problem...the Tweet button on TechCrunch does the same thing, as does the counturl example on Twitter's docs for the Tweet button. Have I misunderstood what the counturl parameter is supposed to do? Am I using the wrong values for url and counturl? Is there a workaround to get the right search results when clicking on the number?

I'm wondering the exact same thing. One would thing the 'retweet' field would indicate this but it is false all the time for me too regardless if a post has been retweeted or not. It would be very confusing to the end user if they still have the ability to retweet a post that they've already retweeted.

If this 10 minute test is successful, we will enable the new_id field continuously on Thursday September 30th at about the same time. Note that timelines returned by the REST and Search APIs will not contain this field.

On Sep 27, 9:47 pm, Taylor Singletary taylorsinglet...@twitter.com wrote: Hi Kutsumi, You are correct in assessing the current behavior -- we'll return to your callback URL if they hit deny. In that case, we'll also NOT be sending you an oauth_verifier and other information you'd need on the callback URL to properly execute the exchange request token for access token negotiation step of OAuth. If your callback function is executed and does not contain the necessary paramaters to further consume an access token, you can make a reasonable assumption that the user denied the access without your application needing to make API calls to verify_credentials (you also wouldn't have any credentials to verify in this case.

So it says here the issue is solved, but just wanted to get clarification on how the issue is solved, and how I should implement my program. So I believe, now after user click deny, they will go to the page which has link and if user clicks on it he/she goes back to the callback_url. Is that correct? Is there any parameter that is attached when callback url is called that will tell me if user has clicked on deny? If not, do I need to call verify credentials everytime callback url is accessed just to find out if user has allowed or denied? Thanks for your help!

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Problem in posting image to Twitter using twitpic
Hey Sunil. Just to add to this, the signature string contains a period '.' which isn't part of the Base64 alphabet. Double check you are base64 encoding the hmac_sha1 signed basestring. In the Authorization header that would then be URL encoded, leaving a string that looks something like this: f5WC1FKhPAlEeEftlday12Cq%2Bn8%3D @themattharris On Tue, Sep 28, 2010 at 6:54 AM, Tom van der Woerdt i...@tvdw.eu wrote: Hi, You should check the algorithm that generates your oauth_signature.

[twitter-dev] Re: Not able to connect to twitter through Google Appengine, getting Timeouts
@Matt thanks a lot. Not seeing the timeouts any more. 500s are everywhere but I understand from your status blog it's a known thing. Thanks for all the help. Over the Appengine group, we've been discussing about IP blocking for cloud offerings like GAE. Would you be able to help with this? Similar thing happened 2 months ago when Appengine apps were all blocked. It lasted for a long time back then as well. Would you guys not be able to allow apps that send their consumer secret and token with the requests? One rogue app on the GAE causes all other good apps to stop working. GAE is one of the best things that has happened to small time devs like me but it has its own limitations and shared IPs are one of them. But I'm pretty sure you guys at Twitter would be able to find a workaround to help us in this problem. -Nischal On Sep 29, 5:59 am, Matt Harris mhar...@twitter.com wrote: Are you still experiencing problems?

[twitter-dev] @Anywhere OAuth Question
Hello, I've created a full feature app using twitteroauth PHP library found on GitHub, and know most calls like the back of my hand.. haha. I was looking into using the @Anywhere javascript library, and watched the slideshow from a workshop presented by @themattharris, so I seen how to pass the OAuth Bridge Code to a script and convert the OAuth 2.0 token to a OAuth 1.0 token. Now, in my PHP application, I have it storing the users token and token secret so they don't have to login each time they use my app. (i.e., they close out of their browser, come back to my app, it takes their user id upon other things in my system and matches them up to the token and token secret for them in my database, and logs them in.) My question: Is there any way to login a user with @Anywhere without checking to see if they are logged into Twitter or having them click the Connect with Twitter button every time they would go to my app?
