I figured out how to implement Abraham's OAuth code. I added this to
my callback page, but nothing shows up:

$to = new TwitterOAuth($consumer_key, $consumer_secret,
$oauth_access_token, $oauth_access_secret);
$content = $to-OAuthRequest('https://twitter.com/statuses/
user_timeline.xml?', array('screen_name'=username), 'GET');
$user = simplexml_load_string($content);

if ($user-screen_name!='') {
echo 'pre';
print_r($user);
echo '/pre';

} else {
if ($user-error!='')
{ echo 'h2ERROR: '.$user-error.'/h2'; }

}

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

Nevermind. Figured it out. The code works now.

Thanks for the quick reply guys.

Having all the employees follow the boss is not an option since not
all employees want a twitter account.
Zac, Twitter was the CEOs choice of messaging. I have very little say
in what he chooses. So, I am not sure if he is open to Yammer. I will
check it out though.
Raffi, can you elaborate on how to implement your suggestion. I
implemented Abraham's OAuth code, but I think Twitter only approves
websites on the internet not on a private network, because when I ran
the code and allowed access twitter did not return with a custom
greeting.

[twitter-dev] Private account

[niel]

Hi,
 I have the following requirement. I set up a private twitter account
for my boss. His tweets need to be visible to all the employees. So,
the tweets must be displayed on the company's intranet so employees
have a central place to read them.
But the issue is that this is only possible with public accounts and
not private accounts. Is there any way around this?

Thanks.
