[twitter-dev] Re: Using @Anywhere with Protoype.js
Hi JM, This looks like more of a jQuery/Prototype issue than twitter. Check jquery docs here on how to use them both on same page without conflicts. http://docs.jquery.com/Using_jQuery_with_Other_Libraries Yogesh On May 17, 10:36 pm, jmdo jmdormo...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, we have a project using Prototype.js.

Thanks Yogesh, as I am aggregating many applications, I have finally used server-side APIs. I will give a try anyway, as it looks it was the reason of my problems.

Re: [twitter-dev] Oauth in Twitter via Python
I'd like to point out that this is against the TOS. You should limit your API requests where possible - for a normal application with user interaction you won't need more than 350 per hour. If you do some sort of data analysis, you may need to use streams instead. Tom On 6/4/11 7:53 PM, Correa Denzil wrote: Tom : Thanks. I will create multiple user accounts.

Re: [twitter-dev] Oauth in Twitter via Python
Oh! I should avoid creating multiple user accounts in that case. I would like to perform analysis on a target set of users and not streams. How do I proceed?

[twitter-dev] One access token for OAuth using Twitter API
Hi, I would like to use a one access token with OAuth to make calls to the Twitter API. I am NOT trying to build a web application but rather trying to harvest data from Twitter to perform some analysis. I would like to collect three types of data : followers, friends and user information including status updates as available. I am able to do all the same using no authentication as the data I collect are from public users only. However, due to API limits I would like to shift to Oauth which would allow me to get access to 350 requests per hour. Is OAuth one access token the right approach for my task? Is there any documentation or example to do the same? I am not using any wrapper. Wrappers like Python-Twitter and Twython don't allow functions to access followers, status updates of other users i.e. users with data publicly available. I use urllib2 to directly call the URL as given on the Twitter API documentation website. I have registered an application and have all the keys (API key, Consumer Key, Consumer Secret, Access Token, Access Secret Key) with me. I would just like to get myself authenticated and mine Twitter to collect data.

Re: [twitter-dev] Oauth in Twitter via Python
If you have the permission of the users, you can probably use their OAuth tokens, which gives you an almost infinite API limit (actually it's still 350 per user, but you won't easily break that). If you want to perform an analysis on a group of users without their consent (without OAuth access), you'll have to find a better way to do it. Tom On 6/4/11 8:12 PM, Correa Denzil wrote: Oh!
