Hi Richard,

You'll be happy to know that we're working hard on improving the readability
& navigation of the documentation.

If you want to track when someone in your application tweets, you'll have to
track that yourself -- Google Analytics is for more than just websites --
just be sure and include a privacy policy with your application that lets
users know you're tracking their activities in the application.

There are other means using the Search API to periodically search for Tweets
with a specific "source tag". For example,
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=source:YoruFukurou+API -- however,
it requires you to also provide actual search criteria in addition to the
"source" filter.

[twitter-dev] Can twitter tell me when there is a new tweet?

2010-12-01 Thread Richard
Just got twitter posting working on my site. I now want to read a
users tweets. From what I can see (documentation layout is awful) I
can only do this by polling twitter. Is there a way to get twitter to
call my callback url for my app when any of the users that have ok'd
it tweets?

That is, push instead of pull.
