Hey Rick,
It's the second time in a week that someone brings up the autofollow/
unfollow question (see also:

and I would love to understand the follow economy once and for all.

I am creating private lists and then adding members with the
create_all method.
1.) Creating a list via the API is no problem. Then I post to
create_all with batches of 20-90 user ids. Only rarely have I been
able to add more than a single batch, even with a few seconds of
sleep, but occasionally
corrupt lists that cannot be edited or deleted.
May I ask someone from Twitter to kindly contact me to help get these
lists removed from my account!
Thanks!
Ken

naming convention of duplicately named
lists: yes, it boggles the mind. Best to just make sure you check the
names of lists a member already has before attempting to create a new
one at this time.

Hey Damon,
The URL you cite is that of the documentation page. The correct URL
(for create_all) is:
http://api.twitter.com/1/:user/:list/create_all.xml
with parameter user_id=:ids or screen_name=:screen_names
The example is:

Damon,
Mea culpa! There's an error in the create_all documentation. I should
know since I filed the bug...
Try:http://api.twitter.com/1/:user/:list/members/create_all.format

Nice find! This is recent, a day or two.
There is confusion elsewhere in the doc regarding optional parameters,
For example, in DELETE :user/lists/:id, id is said to be optional.
If this also fails in the Twitter UI there is hope that it will be
fixed soon.
For now Bert, this bug is yours:
In my app, the list names are quite descriptive, so until this gets
fixed - and I think it will be - I send description=name which makes
some sense as the originally input name is transformed (loss of
capitals and special characters) and does not appear in the Twitter UI
anyway.

make one.
If you were planning to use the list /create_all method, see this

Good points. The order is not random - it's the same each time - just
baffling and useless.
Perhaps we are meant to delete read messages? A useful 3rd party app
might archive and delete them, leaving only new messages on Twitter

Add Location to your tweets does not actually add a location - good
point, and you are probably not the first to think so. It only enables
your account to accept location information. It is still up to you to
send the geo data.
