[twitter-dev] Basic auth removal is a disaster for web applications without xAuth

2010-06-16 Thread IanQuigley
xAuth is not permitted for web clients - WHY?

I have a very small user base, but at least 50% of those people use my
web app because they can not access twitter.com

Without xAuth they will be unable to access slandr.net, dabr.co.uk,
hootsuite etc. These are people in countries where Twitter is blocked
and people who have it blocked by their local network. Will they be
able to use most desktop applications which connect direct to
twitter.com? I doubt it.

Does anybody have any idea how many people are going to be cut off
from twitter after 30 June?


[twitter-dev] Re: Annotations with data types

I think you make a good point. It's no extra effort to append the data
type to the name. If annotations is to become a wild west then
assuming everything is a string unless proven otherwise is a little
rediculas. It might be better to take it one step further since above
you usefloat when really you mean latitude expressed as float.
Likewise 0xff is an int but realy I mean color so a heiracrchy
of types would make more sense? i.e. seconds since 2000 - long -

Hi all

Ian Quigley - asp.net C# developer, working on an Open Source Twitter
web client http://www.twipler.com

Built on top of TweetSharp, it provides HTML templating allowing users
to change their layout and style completely. Being Open Source means
anybody can add functionality to the web client or use the code to
deploy their own instance, or build a new project.
