Hi Jon,
I'm not sure what tone you intended with "I know one of you knows
how to do this" but when it played in my head it sounded like a
threatening father voice. Issues? me? never! If you're using PHP and
want access to the friends_timeline.xml I did a quick google search
[1] and the first hit [2] seems to have the example PHP for pulling
that feed. That snippet shows the basic function but you'll need to do
something the the 'res' variable afterward. Perhaps even easier is
using an existing Twitter library like php-twitter [3], who even have
an example of fetching tweets in php [4].
Thanks;

Surely this cannot be too difficult! The XML feed already exists, I
already have an rss praser, so if someone could just provide me with
the code to authenticate so I can actually pull the feed into my
praser on my server I would be willing to pay!
I know one of you knows how to do this! Thanks!

Thanks Peter, but this appears to just be your own activity. I am
looking to create a page that mimics the activity of those I
follow.... just like you see when you log-in to twitter.
I want to display their photo, name w/link to twitter account,
tweet,
time, etc.
This all appears possible with this file:
http://twitter.com/statuses/friends_timeline.xml
I think I could pull it into a rss praser, but I need to set up
http
auth and have no clue how to do this.
Thanks,
Jon

Should be exactly what you need.

I was able to find an XML feed for those that I follow:
http://twitter.com/statuses/friends_timeline.xml
I have been reading over the documentation but it's pretty
foreign
to
me. My understanding is that I need to use http auth and can
then
pull
in this feed using a rss praser.
My challenge is that I really have no idea what http auth is,
or
how I
would use it to gain access to this feed. Can someone point
me in
the
right direction. Is it just a code snippet?
I essentially want to put my friends feed on my homepage.
I would greatly appreciate and help.
Thanks,
Jon
