[twitter-dev] SUGGESTION FOR A BETTER TWITTER!

2011-01-06 Thread Andrea Calabrese
Hi!  Thank you for having me as a part of this group.  I love Twitter
now that we can get our Tweets on our cell phones.  I find it to be
very helpful and I use it every day.

However, I do see an improvement that needs to be made.  Is there a
way to "list" someone as soon as we see their identity?  I would like
to be able to list my followers and followees without having to go to
their full profile.  Can we do this?

Also, I've been having a problem finding my name in the search box for
several years.  Is there a way I can promote my name, Andrea
Calabrese, in the search engine from the beginning of Twitter.com?


Thanks for the great site!
It's awesome.
Keep up the good work!

Andrea Calabrese

[twitter-dev] ~25% loss rate Streaming API vs. Search API

2011-01-06 Thread Brian Maso
Hi All,

Using the Streaming API, I'm noticing about a 25% loss rate when
tracking multiple hashtags vs. using the good old Search API. I'm
fouind it hard to believe this is true, so I tested over and over, but
I keep getting the same results. The Streaming API just seems to not
provide a fair number of tweets.

Note that I have the lowest rate limit with the Streaming API --
perhaps highest rate limits have lower loss rates.

Has anyone else noticed the rate loss Streaming vs. Search API? Or am
I on crack?

Does the loss rate get lower with the higher Streaming API account
limits?

[twitter-dev] Transferring a suspended account to the proper owner

2011-01-06 Thread Adam Green
I have a client who owns a .com domain name and has applied for a
trademark for the matching name. The Twitter account for this name was
created by someone else and has been suspended. Is there any way to
help them take over this account? They really want to build a Twitter
based app around this name, so using the matching account name is
important to them. And they want me to build the app, so it's
important to me too. Any directions towards a path to resolve this
would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [twitter-dev] possible to get mentions of other users?

2011-01-06 Thread Matt Harris
Hi Joel,

The API will only return mentions for the authenticating user. To retrieve
mentions for other users you would need to use the Search API or 'follow'
the user_id through the Streaming API.

Hope that helps,

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: get friends/followers' ids and nicknames

2011-01-06 Thread Matt Harris
Hi Steve,

In answer to your questions.

1. users/lookup returns information about the user_ids or screen_names you
pass to it. You may choose to pay follower ids, friends ids, or both. It's
purpose is to just expand the user_id or screen_name into a hydrated user
object.

2. If you stay within the rate limits when making requests there shouldn't
be any issues. More on rate limits can be found here:
http://dev.twitter.com/pages/rate-limiting

3. followers/ids and friends/ids will give you just the IDs. If you need the
screen_name you need to call users/lookup or users/show but you would
receive all the information. We don't offer a lightweight version of that
request.

[twitter-dev] Re: get friends/followers' ids and nicknames

2011-01-06 Thread Lingzhi Zhang
Thanks, Matt

I looked at the user/lookup. I have three questions on using that API
to get ids and nickname of friends/followers.

1. user/lookup returns "up to 100 users worth of extended
information". Are the users friends or followers? I would need to
differentiate friends and followers.

2. If the friends/followers are more that 100, I will have to make
multiple calls to get user info. For instance, 10 calls to get 1,000
user info. Does Twitter allow multiple calls to user/lookup one after
another. Is there any limitation?

3. This is not big issue. user/lookup still returns extended
information. However, most of them I don't need at this moment. If
there is a lightweight API to just get friends/followers' ids and
nicknames, that'll be ideal.

Thanks again.

Steve

[twitter-dev] Re: Video loads in browser, not in Twitter app

2011-01-06 Thread Peter Boctor
It looks like your backend is using user agents to determine the type
of video to play.

When video plays in Safari, it sends out the Safari User Agent.
Something like:
Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; U; CPU OS 3_2_2 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/
531.21.10 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Mobile/7B500 Safari/
531.21.10

Your backend is handling that just fine.

But when an app like Twitter uses the built in video player, you'll
get a user agent like this:
AppleCoreMedia/1.0.0.8C148 (iPad; U; CPU OS 4_2_1 like Mac OS X;
en_us)

Your backed fails to recognize that this user agent is from an iPad.

Cheers,
Peter Boctor

You can use users/lookup to retrieve the details of up to 100
user_ids/screen_names at a time. More information here:

2011-01-06 Thread David
I work in the Web Department at The Tonight Show (@jayleno). When we
tweet a link to our video content, the video will load and play in a
browser on iPad and iPhone. When we use the Twitter app, the page will
load but the video will not. I'm trying to understand the difference
between the default iOS browser and the browser (or pane) in the
Twitter app. Any info or solutions to make our videos play through the
Twitter app?

[twitter-dev] Tweet button duplicating in ie8

2011-01-06 Thread brad
Hi, all.

I am having a problem with a retweet button that I added for a client
(healthandwealth101.com).  The problem occurs in ie8 if you click a
blog post and then click the back button in your browser, the tweet
button is duplicated (the duplicate tweet button is placed where the
former facebook like button appeared).

Any thoughts?

Cheers,
Brad

[twitter-dev] get friends/followers' ids and nicknames

2011-01-06 Thread Lingzhi Zhang
Hi,

I am integrating Twitter into my mobile app. I am trying to get the
friends or follower's ids and nicknames. One solution that I can find
out is, using "friends/ids" to get the friends/followers ids, then
"user/show" to get the user info.

However, "user/show" returns extended information of the user, if a
user has a lot of friends/follower (say 1000), it will be very slow to
get nick name of the user.

I wonder if there is any API that only returns ids and nicknames of
friends or followers. Or there is other lightweight approach to
resolve this issue.

Thanks.

Steve

Re: How do I uninstall/reinstall twurl? (was Re: [twitter-dev] twurl is getting "Read-only application cannot POST")

2011-01-06 Thread TJ Luoma
'twurl accounts' shows 3 consumer keys. Changing it to 2nd one does
seem to have solved the problem. I don't know why, because, as I
stated and demonstrated before, none of my apps were every read/write,
but at this point I don't give a sh*t why, as long as it's working. It
only cost me ~3 days of troubleshooting. Gosh, yeah, twurl is just as
easy as curl. OAuth is so convenient to use on the command line.

For those who may come afterwards and wonder how to edit your
'accounts' you have to edit ~/.twurlrc. I didn't see any way to do
something like 'twurl account delete'

Sorry to be so gruff, but this has been a huge hassle and a complete
waste of time.

Thanks to @themattharris for finding a solution, even if there's still
no explanation. Other than "well it must have been read only even
though it wasn't."

[twitter-dev] Re: incorrect created_at times?

2011-01-06 Thread themattharris
Hi Jenny,

The engineers have said this issue should be fixed but that it may
take some time for the cached data to update. This means things going
forward should be fine but Tweets prior to today may still report the
wrong created_at value.

This only affects REST API queries. The Streaming API would have
streamed the correct created_at value when the Tweet was originally
published.

Best
Matt

[twitter-dev] Re: user page (viewed in old twitter) is stale by 7 hours

2011-01-06 Thread Adam Covati
Matt,

It appears that the timeline does not contain all the content. It is
still missing the most recent tweet.

As an example, this tweet 23043372398673920 is shown in new twitter,
but not in the website view.

Thanks for the info though,
Adam

[twitter-dev] Geo Search API problem

2011-01-06 Thread Vico
I´m trying to search places around Sao Paulo city IP address but I get
few results back, Sao Paulo it is a place with a lot of POIs and I
think I may be using the API wrongly or I want to know if Twitter didn
´t implement good coverage in Sao Paulo area. When I got to Twitter
web page and I search places using the web interface I get much more
results than what comes back from Twitter API, or I´m using it wrongly
or Twitter didn´timplement all POIs that are available in the API
results, can someone help me? I tried to changethe accuracy, tried to
ue lat and long, tried t use authenticated method, tried to use
different granularity and in al cases I get very bad list of results.
I apreciate te help of API developers. As I understood this API it is
based on GeoAPI acquisition that was the API used by Foursquare and
Gowalla in the begining of their developement so I would assume a much
btter list of POIs than the ones weare getting right now on the API.

[twitter-dev] user page (viewed in old twitter) is stale by 7 hours

2011-01-06 Thread Adam Covati
We have a problem where some one was worried that their posts weren't
making it from our application to twitter. After looking deeper I've
found that a twitter page for a user is very different if you are
logged in or not.

Please note: Below I refer to the page you see when not logged in as
the 'public page', this is an 'old twitter' page, as opposed to the
'new twitter' view I see when logged in.

It appears the public page for one of our client's twitter accounts is
cached right now and is currently 7 ours behind - this is not just on
one computer, we've seen several computers loading the 'old' page. By
7 hours behind, I mean that a tweet time shows as '1 hour ago' on the
page, but then shows as '8 hours ago' if you log in and view the page
or if you click through on the time and view the actual status' page.
Also a tweet that was posted about 3 hours ago doesn't show up at all
the public page.

Might this be due to page caching or load balancing that is done on
twitter's end for 'old twitter' but not done for 'new twitter'?

I can provide details or screenshots taken within seconds of each
other if that helps, but if anyone else has seen this at all, or knows
of this being normal that'd be helpful.

Thanks

There are unfortunately very few statistics available at this time. We hope

Hello,

I have a script in which I am pulling my friends timeline from Twitter

  $xml = $connection->get('statuses/friends_timeline');

My question is, how do I grab a friends timeline based on a list?

Help is greatly appreciated!

[twitter-dev] Application Whitelisting Problem

2011-01-06 Thread lilpirate
Hello people,

I requested whitelisting for my application. I didn't get any reply as I 
requested it on Saturday.

I read threads that told about the requested-rejected-for-no-reason bug. So 
I emailed a...@twitter.com on Monday evening.

After some time, when I was testing my application, I noticed 
X-RateLimit-Limit to  be 2. I thought my application was accepted. But I 
hadn't got any email saying so.

Then, I got reply for my email saying that there had been some confusion and 
the person escalated my request to the API team. After two hours, I got 
another email saying that my application has been rejected (and the "Here's 
why" section was blank) . And now when I check my X-RateLimit-Limit, it 
shows 350.

I tried to contact Twitter about this, but haven't got any reply yet.

Anybody know why this whitelisting and un-whitelisting must have happened? 
Any help from Twitter staff would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you, all.
--Kapeel.
PS - Not sure why they rejected my application, maybe because my twitter 
handle is @alilpirate ? :P

[twitter-dev] Twitter application statistics

2011-01-06 Thread seker...@gmail.com
Hi,
Is there anyway of getting statistics on my application?
I want to know how many users are using my twitter application, and
how much posts they are doing.
(something like application insights on Facebook)
cheers,
Niv

[twitter-dev] possible to get mentions of other users?

2011-01-06 Thread joelkeepup
Hi, I noticed :
http://api.twitter.com/version/statuses/mentions.format
only works for authenticated user.

Is it possible to get the mentions (I only need the count) of other
users?

thanks
Joel

Re: [twitter-dev] Streaming Site API hogs at some stage

2011-01-06 Thread John Kalucki
The approach that Tim mentions is a good backstop, but this covers for an
operational situation at Twitter that almost never happens. If you are
seeing this condition happen often, there's probably something else wrong
somewhere. If it is on our end, I'd like to fix it, but chances are its on
your end, as there are no other reports of this situation.

Do you have NAT or a HTTP proxy, either in hardware or software, between
your server and the internet? If so, it may be dropping sessions, leaving
your session high and dry.

-John
