[twitter-dev] Site Stream User Events and Status created_at
For user events such as follow, unfollow, etc., would it be possible to include information from the latest status (at least created_at)? This would be helpful in identifying stale accounts. -- 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

Tatham, Thanks for the response.

Hi, I am building a web application using sign-in with twitter and upon signed in I am showing user's friends followers. It's not another twitpic like service but in the vertical market (CRM space). Since sign-in process api calls are authenticated hence will be charged to the respective user (I am ok here) But *the real problem is rate-limiting on the the friends/followers list* because GET statuses/friends ( http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/statuses/friends) calls do not requires authentication and calls are deducted from the calling hosts IP address allowance (my website) which are permitted 150 requests per hour which my website will reach in few minutes. Earlier I could have asked for the *white-listing* from twitter but it's not offered anymore. This features (friends/followers list) is very very important features on my website and without this my website will be toothless. Hence I'm very very frustrated. Can somebody help me how do resolve this issue? Thanks in advance.

[twitter-dev] Quick question on iPhone tweets
I've been doing some research on this, and just wanted to confirm that this is what needs to happen in order to develop an iPhone app that has a page which allows a user to simply login to Twitter, then tweet a quick message to their wall (no other Twitter functionality is needed, this is a very small feature of a large application). This may be as simple as a yes or no question, but I just wanted to confirm before I say this needs to happen, to this client: 1) Client must create Twitter account and then create/register an app 2) Client must send me, the developer, the Consumer Key/Secret 3) Client must send an email to a...@twitter.com to get approval for the app to use XAuth 4) Once approved, then I can develop against that app to authorize and allow users to share to their wall Is there an easier way to go about this functionality, or is this the path that must be taken? Either way is fine, just wanted to make sure.

Re: [twitter-dev] Quick question on iPhone tweets
Hi Vince, There's actually a much easier way for you to implement the simple ability to Tweet from your application without having to code up the OAuth song dance or xAuth, but the frictionless approach comes with the downside of less control, attribution, and feedback. Web Intents ( http://dev.twitter.com/pages/intents ) has a Tweet Intent where you would just direct the user to http://twitter.com/intent/tweet -- if your webview was aware of the current user's twitter.com session, authentication would already be handled -- otherwise the user would quickly log in and have the ability to Tweet. You can prepare a message, make the tweet a reply, use a retweet instead, and a few other options. @episod http://twitter.com/episod - Taylor Singletary On Tue, Apr 5, 2011 at 10:05 AM, Vince svguer...@gmail.com wrote: I've been doing some research on this, and just wanted to confirm that this is what needs to happen in order to develop an iPhone app that has a page which allows a user to simply login to Twitter, then tweet a quick message to their wall (no other Twitter functionality is needed, this is a very small feature of a large application).

Hey everyone, Last week we let you know that we would soon be removing the search.twitter.com/trends endpoints [1]. Next Tuesday (12th April) is when will turn these endpoints off so please make sure you are using api.twitter.com/1/ for trends before then.

To avoid problems or outages with your applications please ensure you are making requests to the correct hosts (and base paths) for the Twitter API you want to use.
