Re: Retrieve Another User's Friends Timeline without Authentication?

2008-11-13 Thread Brian Gilham

That's what I figured, I just wanted to be sure. Thanks fastest! I
suppose I could always require users to enter their password, but with
some of the recent controversy surrounding applications requiring
Twitter passwords, I think I'd just rather not deal with it.

 You cannot, sorry. However, you can keep track of Twitter's progress
 on OAuth. This method would not require any passwords.


Re: Show conversation full thread URL or feed?

2008-11-13 Thread Alex Payne

We don't yet provide a thread/conversation API, but it's something
we're working on.

 At search.twitter, the results snippets have the show conversation
 link that uses AJAX to open up the full thread of replies to the tweet
 at hand. I found a URL structure that corresponds to that
 functionality (http://search.twitter.com/search/thread/[status_ID]),
 but it's not a styled, user facing page and doesn't appear to have a
 feed associated with it. Is their a better URL for threads and/or a
 feed for them? Is the full thread for a specific tweet part of the API
 yet, or soon?

 My apologies, I've asked this before and gotten answers but couldn't
 find my post. Probably a duplicate here.

Re: No OAuth Support just made Techmeme

2008-11-13 Thread Ed Finkler

I think we know this already, and allowing a flavor of the day story
to influence things unduly would be overreaction.

I trust Alex, Matt and co. to make the proper decisions in regards to
what takes precedence.

 I'm sure you're aware of this, but the lack of OAuth or secure login support
 just got really public as it made Techmeme.  IMO, for my App at least, this
 would be first priority if I were to ask for anything.  Anyone else agree?
