I don't know the solution to this offhand but some points to consider: - Twits is a term typically used for Twitter users (in my experience), perhaps you meant tweets? - Proceeding with this may likely be a gross violation of Twitters ToS; doing so may get your app and/or client blacklisted <https://dev.twitter.com/docs/rate-limiting#blacklisting> or worse <https://dev.twitter.com/terms/api-terms> (Section II-4-D and -G, Section V-1) - Regarding identity: <https://dev.twitter.com/terms/api-terms> (Section III) Personally, I'd recommend applying for whitelisted (stream) access <https://dev.twitter.com/docs/rate-limiting-faq#how-whitelisting> -- Scott Elcomb @psema4 on Twitter / Identi.ca / Github & more Atomic OS: Self Contained Microsystems http://code.google.com/p/atomos/ Member of the Pirate Party of Canada http://www.pirateparty.ca/ -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
