no im asking, as i first hear of twitter, and the idea of public im
messages, or timelines of life, and lifetime ... i thought i would be
better to show the @ - at-messages for example @user_ralph said
that too, should appear in the timeline.

at the moment you have to click the userfield on the right side
@user_abc ... to search in twitter for all mention messages, cant you
implement mentions in the basic timeline, as messages from user you follow?

do you understand what i mean?

I think the request is that @mentions are merged in with home_timeline.
There may be desktop clients that support this functionality, for all I
know.

The risks are that some users receive a lot of @mentions, and their home
timelines would be unreadable. So, it would have to be an option. Secondly,
it would open another spam vector that would have to be addressed. We have
considered this feature on www, but I don't know whatever happened to the
idea.

Re: [twitter-dev] @mention messages appear in the timeline

2010-07-06 Thread Raffi Krikorian
another way of stating is to wonder how you handle the mismatch of the
number of tweets the home and mentions timeline receives.  most people do
not want to miss any results in the mentions timeline, but a lot of people
do not mind missing tweets in the home timeline.  if you mash the two
together, how do you make sure to deal with that mismatch.  how would you
juggle the two since IDs that you may want to work with either?  one idea
could be to let clients use the home timeline and mentions timeline
separately to catch up with real time, and then get them both from there
on out...

i would appreciate you to implement that feature maybe in the future, as
spam or... maybe to many @mention messages would waste the timeline, but
the appear in you site anywise, as you effort to read all mention
messages that are directed to you ...

ok, thank you
