Hey there,
Please be careful when you share pieces of code on this Mailing List. I had
to reset your Twitter password because you just shared it publicly. Please
go to http://twitter.com/account/resend_password so we can send you password
reset instructions.
Concerning your issue, the Streaming API doesn't timeout. Our servers hold
the connection open indefinitely. Cf this documentation page for more
information: http://dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api_concepts#connecting
Looks like you're disconnecting in your while loop. There are a couple of
resources out there (like this Shannon Whitley's blog post:
http://bit.ly/ghavU1) that might help you to build your Twitter Streaming
API Client :)
Hope that helps,

Hi
I'm trying the following code snippet to connect to your API but it is
timing out while waiting for the response.
string url = http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json?
follow=12;
WebRequest req = WebRequest.Create(url);
req.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ConnectTweetPRO,
Preston71);
WebResponse response = req.GetResponse();
Encoding encode = Encoding.GetEncoding(utf-8);
var responseStream = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream(),
encode);
int count = 0;
while (!responseStream.EndOfStream count 2)
{
DateTime end = DateTime.Now + TimeSpan.FromSeconds(60);
while (DateTime.Now end)
Thread.Sleep(1000);
Response.Write(responseStream.ReadLine());
count++;
}
Can you help please? I'm sure I'm missing something.
