 You should use the follow parameter on the track resource in the Streaming

Please correct me if I am wrong, but as far as I know the Streaming
API only delivers public statuses. So you would miss the updates of
friends who protected their tweets.


[twitter-dev] Re: Twitter API call to statuses/followers.json / xml - protected users out of sync.

2009-12-03 Thread Frank Mertz
Hi,

I am experiencing exactly the same behavior and described the problem
for the statuses/friends call at
http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_thread/thread/c63e3288e76ed581
and in issue
http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issu/detail?id=1121.

Other calls to retrieve a status like statuses/friends_timeline or
users/show do not have this problem and include new tweets of
protected friends right away in the response. Unfortunately they are
not useful for the use case of my application. Therefore, I am also
very interested in a fix of this problem.

Thanks and best regards,
Frank

2009-11-27 Thread Frank Mertz

Still experiencing the problem of several hours delay until a new
tweet of a user's friend appears in the statuses/friends response
(strangely only for friends with protected statuses).

I have opened an issue on this problem including some example
responses: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/detail?id=1121

I know you must be really busy, but could someone of the Twitter API
team please give a short comment on this issue?

Thanks,
Frank
