[twitter-dev] Re: Twitterizer for twitter search
As far as I know there is not a search function in the Twitterizer framework.. but you really don't need one.. you can use the search method in the Twitter API http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Twitter-Search-API-Method:-search Use a simple httpwebrequest and parse the returned XML.. Link to code to do this just in case you don't know. http://www.codeproject.com/KB/webservices/HttpWebRequest_Response.aspx Hope it helps.

[twitter-dev] Re: Changing domains for image hosting
Same here and it's already breaking our app today. We either give users the browser mixed-ssl error (bad) or re-write to SSL which makes images spin forever which also seems to break some javascript loads on FF (also bad). Since Toucan runs inside salesforce, we are always on SSL for every page. Can twitter turn on SSL for twimg, even if to buy time while we figure it out? One day notice really isn't a lot of time to develop a fix and try to get everyone to re-install their appespecially since for those of us that must serve every page with SSL, there is no good fix.

[twitter-dev] Error in following response
Hi, I've looked to see if this has been asked before, maybe I've missed it, but I notice a problem in the 'following' tag of a user in a replies stream. This value seems to be incorrect.

It's also possible, that some intermediate pages return empty result set. Try this, http://twitter.com/statuses/followers.json?id=billcrosbypage=124 This profile has 44K followers and some of the intermediate pages return empty result sets. Not sure why, but my obvious guess is that all the followers in this page are suspended. So, empty result set doesn't mean that you are done with the traversal. I've modified my scripts to crawl N number of pages, where N is (number of followers/100).

[twitter-dev] Streaming API: updating request parameters

Pass a (http://stream.twitter.com/track.json, track=red) message to the Posting thread 2. The Response thread will now read the status changes containing the keyword red 3. Pass a (http://stream.twitter.com/track.json, track=blue) message to the Posting thread 4. The Response thread will now read the status changes containing the keyword red
[twitter-dev] Re: Streaming API: updating request parameters
This isn't implemented. I don't think we could, either, given our server framework. Create a new connection with the updated parameters. As soon as you receive data from the new connection, close the old connection. Keep the churn rate low, don't reconnect too often, and you should stay out of the way of anti-abuse measures. -John On Jul 10, 3:58 pm, Cary Knoop carykn...@gmail.com wrote: Is the following implemented or will it be implemented?
