[twitter-dev] support for location filter of streaming api in India
Hi, I have just started using location filter in statuses/filter method. Initially i tried with the coordinates given in documentation (which were for New York) and it worked fine. I then worked out the coordinates for some area in India but i am not getting any tweets at all. I understand that this filter will return tweets created using geotagging api but i am sure that atleast some people in India would have this feature enabled. Is it the case that this filter does not work in India? I feel so because i tried adding location to my tweets but cannot see any location attached to them. What could i be doing wrong?

[twitter-dev] Rate limiting for streaming API
Hi, From what i understand, there is no concept of rate limiting for streaming api. Actually it does make sense because if anyone is to use 'statuses/sample' method (say) the limit will soon be crossed. We are working on something that will heavily use the streaming api, so if rate limiting is imposed in future it could create some problems. Are there any chances of such a restriction being imposed? Secondly, this api requires authentication unlike search api. Authentication for user streams is fine but I don't understand it's need for streaming api.

Re: [twitter-dev] Rate limiting for streaming API
On going through the documentation in more detail i found this: - The the track parameter (keywords), and the location parameter (geo) on the statuses/filter method are rate-limited predicates. - After the * limitation period* expires, all matching statuses will once again be delivered, along with a limit message that enumerates the total number of statuses that have been eliminated from the stream since the start of the connection. What exactly is the limitation period and what is one supposed to do after the limitation period expires? Destroy the current connection and create a new one? Paresh.

There's no limit on the amount of tweets you can receive, but there's a limit on the amount of searches you can do, and the amount of connections you can have open. Secondly, this api requires authentication unlike search api. Authentication for user streams is fine but I don't understand it's need for streaming api. There's probably no real technical reason for why this is required, but for properly being able to keep statistics etc, it's needed. That, and the fact that there are several different levels of access to the API.

[twitter-dev] Services_Twitter pear package
Hi, I am Paresh, a final year student in computer engg. I am an absolute newbie as far as twitter development is concerned though i am hugely interested in working on it. Currently, i am developing a toy application, where one could send tweets, receive them and some other things. I am using Services_Twitter pear package for that. First of all, i don't know if this a good way to go about it. In what other way can i communicate with twitter APIs?? So here is the piece of code that is creating problem ?php include_once 'Services/Twitter.php'; try { $service = new Services_Twitter('pareshnakhe','mahabharat'); if($service) print(first call done\n);//this is seen on screen $service-statuses-update('Coding with pear'); //but for this it is giving ERROR: Basic authentication is not supported $service-account-end_session(); } catch (Exception $e) { die('ERROR: ' . $e-getMessage()); } ? Can anyone please tell me where am i going wrong??
