[twitter-dev] is there any possible to twitter block my twitter applications?
Please make me clear. I have done like twitter *‘4 new tweets’* in timeline using twitter REST API method. For showing this message I frequently called this *get('statuses/home_timeline',array('since_id' = $since_id));* in the time period of *1 minute*. My question is because of frequently calling this method,* is there any possible to twitter block my twitter applications?* If so, then tell me the time period of calling this method. Now every one minute I just called this method for showing like ‘4 new tweets’ by passing this since_id. So please clear my doubt. Thanks in advance.

[twitter-dev] Need Help Dumping my Tweets for Analysis
Hi, First, let me start by apologizing for asking a question that I know I could answer for myself with enough googling, or simply implement myself by studying the API docs. I would do so... if I could. But that's kind of difficult for me right now. The question: can someone point me to a tool, or piece of sample code, that can dump all my tweets into a text file? Or at least, the last several months worth? Preferably Java or Python code. The reason: I may have had a small, silent heart attack about mid- September. And, strangely enough, my tweets at the time might help my doctor and I pinpoint the approximate date of the incident, because I sometimes tweet about my exercise habits. But I need the tweets all in a pile I can sort through easily. Unfortunately, given that I'm still feeling very unwell, I just don't have the energy to figure out how to get my historical tweet data in a form that would help me do this analysis, or to write the code myself to do so. Can anyone help me out with this? Somebody must have a tool to do this, right? Something that just dumps all my tweets into a plain text file, respects the API rate limits, etc? Thanks for any help you can offer. If I wind up needing to make any mods to open source code, I'll be more than happy to share any changes I make, if appropriate.

[twitter-dev] Tweet button not working with a 'localhost' data-url?
Hi, I'm currently testing the tweet button for our website. When I test the button locally and want to share a link in the form of 'http://localhost:8080/somepath/image.jpg' its says that the 'url' param is invalid. But when I test it on a 'real' server (like example.com) the button does work. The data-url attribures are dynamically generated, which means if the file was on 'example.com' instead of 'localhost' the link would be 'http://example.com/somepath/image.jpg' Can anyone confirm that share does not work with 'localhost' as data- url?

In that case, we'll also NOT be sending you an oauth_verifier and other information you'd need on the callback URL to properly execute the exchange request token for access token negotiation step of OAuth. If your callback function is executed and does not contain the necessary paramaters to further consume an access token, you can make a reasonable assumption that the user denied the access without your application needing to make API calls to verify_credentials (you also wouldn't have any credentials to verify in this case.

I would like to handle the situation better when access is denied..I saw bunch of similar posts in 2009, just wondering if this feature ever got implemented, and if so, if I can find a relevant documentation on how to implement this...

[twitter-dev] Twurl Multiple Account Usage Help
I think i'm one of many who are looking for different ways of moving from Curl to Twurl with Twitter's closing the Basic Authentication protocol. I have different scripts that run on my server, based on certain criteria on the return of that script an automated tweet goes out to 1 of 2 accounts. With basic authentication it was easy to define the account using '-u' and '-p'. I'm trying to figure out how to do it with Twurl. I've authorized the two accounts in Twurl, but I can only get the default to tweet. I see I can change the default account, but depending on how fast the script is running it may want to tweet both accounts about the same time, and I don't want it to get caught switching defaults and the wrong data being sent to the incorrect account. I tried adding '-u' and the username at the start of the Twurl call, but it errors saying You need to authorize first, even though the account was authorized. Has anyone had success in this?

[twitter-dev] Streaming api returning 401 error on phrase tracking(logical AND)
I am getting strange results when using streaming api with and without Oauth. Without oauth i am able to track phrases whereas with oauth i get a 401 error, able to track normal words with oauth.Is there any restriction on phrase tracking? Could not find any pointers in the docs.btw i use twitter4j.

[twitter-dev] Is there way to post multiple tweets in one API update call?
Hey guys, I am writing an app that tweets a message typed into a field. My client is asking if it is possible to split message into multiple tweets if message is longer than 140 characters. I am writing to see if there is way to send multiple tweets in one API? If not, I will need to send multiple update API calls within short duration. Is there any complication with this? I was wondering if I can possibly hit API limit this way... :(. Thank you for your help!

Re: [twitter-dev] Twitter Streaming API rate limiting frequency-track
Thanks John, but my application needs to add/remove keywords on a regular basis, and i am planning an algorithm which does something like calculate current frequency for main account which is near approximation for the current time (calculating based on last 10 mins,1 hr,1 day frequencies) and on adding a new keyword it increases. I cant find a way to determine when to stop adding new keyword without knowing an upper limit. -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk?hl=en
[twitter-dev] You cannot tweet a same message within certain timeframe or number of past tweets?
Hi, at my work I am developing an app to post tweets on Twitter. While testing the app, I noticed that I keep getting forbidden error if I tried to tweet same message over and over again. So I went to the Twitter site to tweet directly and it looks like even from Twitter.com I cannot repeat the same tweets made within past few hours. I presume this is a feature to prevent abuse, but I cannot find any documentation anywhere:( I need to be able to explain to my customer this limitation though.. does anyone know where can I find an official information about this, which contains information about how many hours after original tweet that the same message can be tweeted again? Thanks for your help!! K

[twitter-dev] Twitter Apps going live with Oauth
Hello We have had Twitter OAuth in twitblogs test site for a few weeks http://oauth.twitblogs.com and I know several other people have also got it implemented (TWE2) on test sites waiting for Twitter to give us ALL the thumbs up but it seems some apps are not waiting or have jumped the gun. http://excla.im http://microplaza.com http://combotweet.com I have asked twitter to clarify the situation and explain why some apps are allowed to go live and others are having to wait patiently and then found this from Matt Sanford *During this closed beta we recommend very strongly that you not **do general software releases using the feature. If we find any **security or performance problems we will need to turn off OAuth and I **don't want to break your apps. Your app can sign up users who are not **in the closed beta but since this is really a focus on getting **feedback please try and limit the audience to people who you feel can **provide some feedback. * So there you have it.

Well the upside of this is that we have massive database of all the short URL's - and where they resolve to, included in this we also go and grab the page that it points at, and so we fetch the title, category of content, and a few other bits. We have tried to stick very closely to the RESTful + twitter style API The documentation is here - http://www.tweetmeme.com/apidoc.php An example of the url fetcher - http://api.tweetmeme.com/url_info?url=http://is.gd/lznv We also have two methods that let you fetch the most popular + the most recent stories.

[twitter-dev] Re: Which services use twitter username and password as account identifier
Hi I wonder if there is any value in twitter supporting the openid/oauth hybrid extension http://googledataapis.blogspot.com/2009/01/bringing-openid-and-oauth-together.html This would allow us 3rd party developers to create a login mechanism for our own sites but wrap the Authentication and Authorisation request up in one call to twitter but I guess this requires twitter to support openid. Thanks in advance Sam www.twitblogs.com/ssethi This email is: [ ] bloggable [ ] twittable [ ] ask first [X] private Sent from: Poplar Eng United Kingdom. 2009/3/1 Paul Kinlan paul.kin...@gmail.com Hi Sam, I think most things other than a basic username and password will confuse most people, which is why asking for their twitter username and password is done (rightly or wrongly) because people know it, use it all the time on twitter and don't have to remember yet another password. I will give JainRains solution a look over. Trouble is, it looks two phase, log-in via openId/facebook/etc then hook up your twitter account (using oAuth); obviously once you have set up your twitter account your only ever have to log in using the JainRain stuff. I do like using the twitter account and password (like many app developers) because its central, you can verifiy the details and let people use your service in one simple step and you don't need another external sevice to authenticate against. I just worry that using external services will limit who uses Twitter apps, and I also worry that managing the credentials myself will negate all the benefits that oAuth provides (because most people will use the same password as their twitter password). On http://oauth.twe2.com you only ever type anything when you are redirected to Twitters site, twe2 doesn't ask for anything ever. In my opinon it is the cleanest thing from a UX point of view, however, it's not (from what I have been told) how your supposed to use oAuth.

Re: New API methods to retrieve social graph without pagination
Alex - This is a great addition to the API - will make things much easier. Quick question (and I apologize if this is already documented): do the followers / friends always come in descending order of when they friendship/follow was created? In other words will the most recent follow/friend always be first? I know the original followers call was ordered in the order in which the follower joined twitter. Hoping this isn't set up the same way - it would be nice to basically stop iterating over the list once a repeat friend/follower is found. Thanks for the clarification, Matt On Feb 3, 5:01 pm, Alex Payne a...@twitter.com wrote: Happy to announce two new API methods today, delivered in response to developer demand for an easier way to keep tabs on users' social graphs. The methods, /friends/ids and /followers/ids, return the entire list of numeric user IDs for a user's set of followed and following users, respectively. Responses to these methods are cached until the user's social graph changes. The responses come direct from our denormalized list data stores, and should be reasonably fast even for users with a large number of followers/follows. These new methods are most useful for services that are maintaining a cache of user details. If you see a user ID that you don't have cached, you'll have to call /users/show to retrieve that user's details. But for services with large user bases, or those that simply want to diff a user's social graph over time, we hope these methods will come in handy.
