In that case I will call it automatically after obtaining the access

On top of all that, AFAIK the 1500 limit for OAuth is still vaporware
at this point, so everybody is capped at 150.
To inform the discussion, I wonder if Twitter could share any figures
like what's the actual API use distribution? Like what combination of
users/apps hit the cap regularly and

Is it possible to get this info for any other user than the

You order all parameters EXCEPT the signature, then create the signature,
then append the signature to the end. All other parameters should be in
order.
I am under the impression that sorting is only required to generate
the Signature Base String. I haven't seen anything in the OAuth spec

Twitter API lets you follow and unfollow people. But, the user needs
to login, and these days the fancy way to do login is through OAuth,
which means a trip to twitter.com anyway.

Is there a reason why the OAuth URL in the api wiki could not be HTTPS
by default? Why would you want to recommend HTTP over HTTPS? (I know
that OAuth was designed to be safe over HTTP, immune against man-in-

The one other thing you might want to do is to update the interface on
http://twitter.com/oauth, which is where you configure your OAuth
apps. This returns you the URLs to use, which are now different from
what the wiki says. twitter.com/oauth should also return the correct
updated urls.

Sounds like you are just redirecting your users to the Twitter API URL
in their browser, and they are seeing the API response. This is not
right. You should use some Twitter API library to send the API request
and receive the response within your application, and then display
some feedback to your

Thanks, good feedback.
Yep, it is always preferable to be explicit about specifying the
intent. API versioning and explicit options are both good ways of
doing that. The kerfuffle around the popular searches being injected
happened exactly because there was previously no way to specify
intent.

I like oAuth because for both Twitter and me as a developer, it
associates the request with both the user and app. As a developer, I
have a bunch of apps and I can go to twitter.com/oauth to see the

+1 to DMs being a stream, and splitting send/received not making much
sense, neither globally nor in one contact context. I treat them as

I'm still not buying it that oauth is going add any value for desktop
clients with regards to password security. Basically you are now storing
token in the desktop client instead of password.
The added security is that either your malicious app, or, say some
trojan in the user's computer,
