[twitter-dev] Hashbangs and the Tweet Button
Today I noticed that Twitter urls containing the hashbang are correctly counted by the Tweet button, but the same url without it are not counted at all. Example: This url http://twitter.com/#!/smashingmag/statuses/40319552151625728 is counted by the Tweet button as 100K+ but http://twitter.com/smashingmag/statuses/40319552151625728 is counted as 0. In the first case, the url was added by the user using a bookmarklet, and in the second the url was added via a user's twitter favorites rss feed. Here's what generates the tweet button: script class='twitter-share-js' src='http://platform.twitter.com/ widgets.js' type='text/javascript'/script a data-url='theUrl' data-text='theTweet' data- related='myAppTwitterAcct' data-counturl='theUrlAgain' href='http:// twitter.com/share' class='twitter-share-button'Tweet/a Thanks! -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk
[twitter-dev] I have a problem of API when I apply it for a website.
Hello. I'm Jeong, Kyeonghun. I'm working at an online marketing company of which the area of business is South Korea. My company has started using a service that shows recent tweets. And for the service, we used the official Twitter API, Timeline API. But the problem is, we have got some trouble updating tweets. And the error occurs quite often. So, I'd like to know if there is any other API that we can use instead of Timeline API or if there is any other way to fix this problem. I will be looking forward to your answer.

[twitter-dev] Tweet loaded handler
Hi, I'd like to modify the onclick handler of links in tweets. I used document.links to retrieve every links, but at the time my function is fired (onload of the body), the tweets are not rendered. How could I know when they are rendered? That way, I could list them and use them in my javascripts. Is there a documented event I could use, telling when the tagline is loaded?

[twitter-dev] Multi language JSON Error
Hi all! I'm implementing a twitter accessing application using the API, so far so good. However, I'm looking forward to distribute my application in non- english speaking territories, so the users may be using any twitter language other than english. That doesn't represent a problem for the API access or the application itself, except for the error handling. When my app was used only on english accounts, errors were something like: - request: /1/direct_messages/new.json error: You cannot send messages to users who are not following you. - But as I switched an account to spanish to start testing and the response is as follows: - request: /1/direct_messages/new.json error: No puedes enviar mensajes a usuarios que no te siguen. - So my app cannot rely anymore on those texts for error checking. Even worse, I have observed messages in spanglish like this one: - request: /1/friendships/create.json error: Could not follow user: Has sido bloqueado para seguir esta cuenta a petición del usuario. - So.. I could add handling for those spanish texts as I ran into them but, I think that is not a fine solution as I may be reaching soon users with accounts in french, italian and even german. Summing up, is there any solution for the multi language error strings other than trying to fetch all error strings for every new language my users set up? Thanks a lot for your time, and I hope you can help me out with this.

[twitter-dev] consistency and ecosystem opportunities
Hey all, I’d like to give you an update about the state of the Twitter Platform and hopefully provide some much requested guidance. Since this time last year, Twitter use has skyrocketed. We’ve grown from 48 million to 140 million tweets a day and we’re registering new accounts at an all-time record. This massive base of users, publishers, and businesses is a giant playground for developers to build their own businesses on, and this means the opportunity has grown for everyone. With more people joining Twitter and accessing the service in multiple ways, a consistent user experience is more crucial than ever. As we talked about last April, this was our motivation for buying Tweetie and developing our own official iPhone app. It is the reason why we have developed official apps for the Mac, iPad, Android and Windows Phone, and worked with RIM on their Twitter for Blackberry app. As a result, the top five ways that people access Twitter are official Twitter apps. Still, our user research shows that consumers continue to be confused by the different ways that a fractured landscape of third-party Twitter clients display tweets and let users interact with core Twitter functions. For example, people get confused by websites or clients that display tweets in a way that doesn’t follow our design guidelines, or when services put their own verbs on tweets instead of the ones used on Twitter. Similarly, a number of third-party consumer clients use their own versions of suggested users, trends, and other data streams, confusing users in our network even more. Users should be able to view, retweet, and reply to @nytimes’ tweets the same way; see the same profile information about @whitehouse; and be able to join in the discussion around the same trending topics as everyone else across Twitter. *A Consistent User Experience* Twitter is a network, and its network effects are driven by users seeing and contributing to the network’s conversations. We need to ensure users can interact with Twitter the same way everywhere. Specifically: - *The mainstream consumer client experience*. Twitter will provide the primary mainstream consumer client experience on phones, computers, and other devices by which millions of people access Twitter content (tweets, trends, profiles, etc.), and send tweets. If there are too many ways to use Twitter that are inconsistent with one another, we risk diffusing the user experience. In addition, a number of client applications have repeatedly violated Twitter’s Terms of Service, including our user privacy policy. This demonstrates the risks associated with outsourcing the Twitter user experience to third parties. Twitter has to revoke literally hundreds of API tokens / apps a week as part of our trust and safety efforts, in order to protect the user experience on our platform. - *Display of tweets in 3rd-party services*. We need to ensure that tweets, and tweet actions, are rendered in a consistent way so that people have the same experience with tweets no matter where they are. For example, some developers display “comment”, “like”, or other terms with tweets instead of “follow, favorite, retweet, reply” - thus changing the core functions of a tweet. With this in mind, we’ve updated our Terms of Service: http://dev.twitter.com/pages/api_terms. *The Opportunity for Developers* Developers have told us that they’d like more guidance from us about the best opportunities to build on Twitter. More specifically, developers ask us if they should build client apps that mimic or reproduce the mainstream Twitter consumer client experience. The answer is no. If you are an existing developer of client apps, you can continue to serve your user base, but we will be holding you to high standards to ensure you do not violate users’ privacy, that you provide consistency in the user experience, and that you rigorously adhere to all areas of our Terms of Service. We have spoken with the major client applications in the Twitter ecosystem about these needs on an ongoing basis, and will continue to ensure a high bar is maintained. As we point out above, we need to move to a less fragmented world, where every user can experience Twitter in a consistent way. This is already happening organically - the number and market share of consumer client apps that are not owned or operated by Twitter has been shrinking. According to our data, 90% of active Twitter users use official Twitter apps on a monthly basis. In contrast, the number of successful applications and companies in the Twitter ecosystem that focus on areas outside of the mainstream consumer client experience has grown quickly, and this is a trend we want to continue to support and help grow. Twitter will always be a platform on which a smart developer with a great idea and some cool technology can build a great company of his or her own. And, with record user growth, there has never been a better time to build into Twitter. Some

[twitter-dev] Re: consistency and ecosystem opportunities
Thanks for the clarification Ryan. Two questions: 1) Do you have a clear definition of what counts as a Twitter client? Is it any app/service that posts updates to Twitter, including apps like twitterfeed and Instapaper? Or is it only those apps that are primarily clients? I'm certainly familiar with the challenge of classifying apps ;) but wanted to know who will be covered by the ToS Section 1.5 and how you think about clients given Twitter's updated stance. 2) In section 1.5.A of the ToS it says: Your Client must use the Twitter API as the sole source for features that are substantially similar to functionality offered by Twitter. Some examples include trending topics, who to follow, and suggested user lists. Is the Who to follow functionality available via API from Twitter for clients that want to offer this? I wasn't aware that it been released as API but may have missed it on dev.twitter.com.

On Fri, 11 Mar 2011 13:18:24 -0700, Ryan Sarver rsar...@twitter.com wrote: THE OPPORTUNITY FOR DEVELOPERS Some key areas where ecosystem developers are thriving: - PUBLISHER TOOLS. Companies such as SocialFlow [2] help publishers optimize how they use Twitter, leading to increased user engagement and the production of the right tweet at the right time. - CURATION. Mass Relevance [3] and Sulia [4] provide services for large media brands to select, display, and stream the most interesting and relevant tweets for a breaking news story, topic or event. - REALTIME DATA SIGNALS. Hundreds of companies use real-time Twitter data as an input into ranking, ad targeting, or other aspects of enhancing their own core products. Klout [5] is an example of a company which has taken this to the next level by using Twitter data to generate reputation scores for individuals. Similarly, Gnip [6] syndicates Twitter data for licensing by third parties who want to use our real-time corpus for numerous applications (everything from hedge funds to ranking scores). - SOCIAL CRM, ENTREPRISE CLIENTS, AND BRAND INSIGHTS. Companies such as HootSuite [7], CoTweet [8], Radian6 [9], Seesmic [10], and Crimson Hexagon [11] help brands, enterprises, and media companies tap into the zeitgeist about their brands on Twitter, and manage relationships with their consumers using Twitter as a medium for interaction. - VALUE-ADDED CONTENT AND VERTICAL EXPERIENCES. Emerging services like Formspring [12], Foursquare [13], Instagram [14], and Quora [15] have built into Twitter by allowing users to share unique and valuable content to their followers, while, in exchange, the services get broader reach, user acquisition, and traffic. There's a common thread in most of the businesses you've listed as thriving above. Nearly all of them interface with *multiple* networks - Twitter, yes, but also Facebook, LinkedIn, and even MySpace. HootSuite, for example, connects to Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, Ping.fm, WordPress, Foursquare and mixi. There's also Google Buzz / Latitude, Tumblr, Posterous, Gowalla, Yelp, and I'm sure many others. In short, I'd say there seem to be few businesses thriving that have focused only on Twitter. Last time I looked at the Alexa site rankings world-wide, Twitter was number nine. It's a long climb to the top IMHO - Twitter needs to pass Wikipedia and Baidu just to get to the point where Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft and Facebook are in sight. Twitter is still growing, for sure, but there are clearly some challenges for developers who only develop for Twitter. -- http://twitter.com/znmeb http://borasky-research.net A mathematician is a device for turning coffee into theorems. -- Paul Erdős -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk

I'll ditto Mike Champion that it would be good to have a clear definition of client. I posted elsewhere (Do new ToS conditions apply to my app? -- in retrospect it would have been better here) that I'm just about to release a minimal client on the iPad, and you've just scared the bejesus out of me because I don't know if I'm suddenly verboten or not.

[twitter-dev] Re: IPhone + Twitter + LinkedIn Error : Command /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/gcc-4.2 failed with exit code 1
First of all it is difficult to identify errors esp you don't have the source code. However the stockoverflow discussion was good enough to point out the general problems. ld: duplicate symbol _EstimateBas64EncodedDataSize in /Users/pratgupta/ Desktop/Settinglinkedin/10_mar_butterfli/LinkedInClientLibrary/build/ Debug-iphonesimulator/libLinkedInClientLibrary.a(Base64Transcoder.o) and /Users/pratgupta/Desktop/Settinglinkedin/10_mar_butterfli/Twitter +OAuth/Libraries Headers/libOAuth.a(Base64Transcoder.o) Problem is: duplicate symbol It occurs on _EstimateBas64EncodedDataSize from LinkedinClientLibrary in libLinkedInClientLibrary.a(Base64Transcoder.o) and Twitter+OAuth in libOAuth.a(Base64Transcoder.o). Note: LinkedIn library and Ben Gottlieb's Twitter client include the same OAuthConsumer code. It is duplicated. libLinkedInClientLibrary and libOAuth both symbolicate the same method '_EstimateBas64EncodedDataSize'. Check your #imports. Just do a search within your Xcode project on _EstimateBas64EncodedDataSize. Find out where the duplicated methods. Determine which one you should remove.
