Re: [twitter-dev] At Reply Spam
Twitter is supposed to be entertaining and informative. I don't know about all of you, but I got a good belly laugh from discovering this on Louis Gray's blog last night, following the links to some NSFW tweets and then reading the ReadWriteWeb post Marshall Kirkpatrick made on the subject. ;-) Yeah, it's a bad idea IMHO but I did need a good laugh.

I believe this has been discussed before here, so forgive me if this is redundant. http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_thread/thread/bf32ca8ee0081df1/6f034d69cb45b892 I would like to build a chain of replies originating from a single tweet. The user will look at the first tweet, then be presented with the replies to this tweet and be able to move along the chain from the head down the branches. What would be the best way of implementing this? Requiring users to include a hashtag then periodically searching and keeping a local database of which tweets are in_reply_to which?
[twitter-dev] Empty reply from server on Streaming API?
Am I the only one seeing this? I call the Streaming API 10x/hour. For the last 23 hours or so, I've been getting bad responses every time. I use a cron job to call from the Linux shell: curl --user myid:mypassword --silent --fail --max-time 3 --retry 0 http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/sample.xml and I get usually a curl return code (52) Empty reply from server, though sometimes (6) name lookup timed out. Same thing happens when I ask for .json instead of .xml. The failures started at the rate of 1-2/hour on 2009/11/13 09:00h UTC (Friday early morning PST), though they became continuous as of 200/11/14 03:24h UTC (Friday evening PST), and remain continuous. Is anyone else calling this API and failing? Or succeeding? in the last 24 hours?

[twitter-dev] in reply to links no longer appears in web interface
Hi, I use twitter (@bassmanjase), and access it via the website and teh Echofon plugin for Firefox. I've just noticed today that the in reply to links no longer appear on the website, but they're still present in Echofon. It's possible that this change happened at the same time as the ReTweet upgrade - I saw the popup on my twitter home-page just a couple of days ago. I thought I'd mention it, since being able to see who someone is replying to is kind of helpful, esp since I have the bit.ly plugin installed which shows the original tweet when I hover over in reply to. I can't do that any more, since the link is no longer there. There are quite a few users with this problem - just twitter-search in reply to and you'll get a decent number of hits. Cheers, Bassmanjase.
[twitter-dev] auto-reply?
Hey, im starting on a new project and was wandering if anyone can help? The project consists of twittering to the user (through @) and then having the user automatically reply to that user (again through @) with a message that someone has sent to it. scenario: the twitter user orange has the following messages sent to them (through @): -...@orange 1 -...@orange 2 -...@orange 3 -...@orange 4 -...@orange 5 then, when someone else sends an @ message to orange, orange would automaically reply to that user with a randomly selected previous @ message (1 or 2 or 3 etc...). any ideas/help? anything is appreciated. -bruce

Is there any way to query all the replies to a particular status ID? I scanned the API but didn't see anything. Thanks.
