[twitter-dev] Non-Smart phone location

2010-03-06 Thread Abir
Hey Guys, If I update my status via text, using a non-smartphone in the US, does twitter pick up the location variables? If so lat/long or just neighborhood? Thanks

Thanks all for the replies. Mark: Then the API Documentation is misleading as it says Clients may request up to 3,200 statuses via the pageā€¦. My assumption was i can get a maximum result set of 3200 tweets but could change the timeframe of the result set by using since_id and max_id. What you

I filed a request for the ability for an authenticated user to be able to retrieve *all* of his or her tweets a long time ago. I can find the date and other details on this group if necessary. Someone back then from Twitter said that or some equivalent was on the road map. -- M. Edward (Ed)

[twitter-dev] OAuth newbie question

2010-03-06 Thread IDOLpeeps
What do you do once you get the oauth_token and oauth_token_secret? Do the token and secret get passed along with the rest of the API call as posted parameters? Can someone please provide an example of how to form a CURL request in php using the token and secret? I can not find documentation

it is on our roadmap to be able to retrieve all your tweets. just to be precise, however, all your tweets are retrievable, if you know their IDs -- you can then retrieve them using statuses/show endpoint. what we don't maintain, however, is retrieval of more than 3200 tweets via the timeline

I've overcome the nuances of generating the oauth signature. It shocks me that the API documentation provides no clear indication of how to send the tokens along with an API call. It's not even a PHP- specific question. Simply put: Where do the oauth_token and oauth_token_secret get embedded in
