2010-10-24 Thread Jaanus
It would be awesome if entities or annotations contained this info.
Right now it doesn't seem to be available.

 on twitter.com if the tweet contain image, video ...etc : the tweet
 will have image  video icons even if the links to this media is
 short ... is there a better way for knowing the media types in the
 tweets from the API than analyzing the long urls ?

[twitter-dev] Re: Occasional 401s with correct tokens

2010-10-24 Thread @IDisposable

 However, we get occasional 401s. After digging around a bit we found
 that correctly-signed requests can timeout on the server side and
 Twitter returns a 401.

I'll be willing to bet that you got an invalid / used nonce message
too... I suspect your machine's clock is out of sync with twitters by
too much.  Make sure the machine you are using for this does an NTP
time sync regularly.

BTW, can we PLEASE get a better message for this, Twitter?  I spent a
bunch of time trying to figure out why my _unchanged_ library suddenly
started 401ing with invalid/used nonces... and this was the cause...
my machine was 11 minutes off UTC (fixed that, but still... a
reasonable message would have helped).
