[twitter-dev] public_timeline accessible via curl but not ruby or js

[kaiwren]

Hi,

I've been messing around with the api after quite some time and the
first thing I tried was http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/public_timeline.json

This works perfectly with curl but the odd thing is this doesn't seem
to work for me with either js or ruby, where it returns a 401 with an
error code of 32 ('Could not authenticate you') in the body.

In summary

  curl http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/public_timeline.json

works, but

  'http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/
public_timeline.json'.to_uri.get.deserialise

and

 jQuery.ajax({
      url: 'http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/public_timeline.json',
      dataType: 'json',
      success: function(data, textStatus, xhr){
        this.e.log(data);
        this.e.log(textStatus);
      }
    })

don't.

Please note that the Ruby example uses the Wrest gem.

Anyone know what I'm missing here?

Thanks,
Sidu.
