Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Tweet button and iphone
Hi Anajjar: Sorry we couldn't be more help. Is it possible that your implementation doesn't support a popup from Twitter? If so, there might be a solution that works, but we'd have to specifically diagnose why your app is not working. If I can find anything that might help your situation, I'll be sure to add it to this thread.

Re: [twitter-dev] Tweet button and iphone
Hi Anajjar, I've been trying to click on your site to test your example, but the site is not responding. However, when a user clicks a Tweet Button on a site using mobile Safari on the iPhone, a new browser window will open with the Tweet intent. If a user is logged in, he can complete that intent. If not, he will be prompted to sign in. I just tested this with Twitter's main blog at http://blog.twitter.com from an iPhone using iOS 4.3.3. Users can return to your site by pressing the iOS UI that shows all open pages (up to 8) and swiping back to your site. Hope this helps.

Re: [twitter-dev] twaud.io api: anyone manage to get it working?
I have done some more digging around (WireShark is amazing!) and I have gotten past a big initial hurdle: I was building the signature base string wrong (building it, then setting more parameters, which should have been part of the base string in the first place). As a sanity check, at this point my code can, using xAuth, post twitter status updates. But I'm incredibly confused as to what I need to send to twaud.io's server. It says x_verify_credentials_authorization should contain the Authorization header. That authorization header is built with a base string of POSThttp[All those oauth_* params and the encoded twaud.io params] but if the base string is supposed to include all the post form parameters, x_auth_service_provider and x_verify_credentials_authorization are form parameters, but I can't include authorization, since that is defined as something that contains the output of this whole thing. So what SHOULD be in the base string's params? I tried just putting in everything except the x_verify_credentials_authorization and x_auth_service_provider and get the very opaque 403 Forbidden / Not Authorized. I mean, the account is Authorized by twaud.io and twitter, and we have an xAuth token from twitter, so that doesn't seem very informative. Here's a sample base string: POSThttp%3A%2F%2Ftwaud.io%2Fapi%2Fv2%2Fupload.jsonoauth_consumer_key%3DofEzSNkKNMzu4ANhII5g%26oauth_nonce%3D8BE06737-9C9C-4EB1-A3B7-CDFCDAD7DF13%26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-SHA1%26oauth_timestamp%3D1298633580%26oauth_token%3D257264155-voUkUaayPjhrtW4a1Aid2lS2LshC5JDIM9p2LMXO%26oauth_version%3D1.0%26sound%255Bmessage%255D%3DTESTING123 containing POST, then http:// (tried https as well, but http is helpful while debugging), the all the oauth_* params, then sound[message]. One thing that jumps out at me is that I'm not sure what to do about the sound[file] part, as that parameter is a multipart encoded thing, not just another normal post parameter. Maybe that has to be part of the base string?

The first thing to note is the Headers should be of the format X-Verify-Credentials-Authorization. The x_verify_credentials_authorization is mentioned because Twaud.io supports the OAuth Echo parameters in the header or POST body. Looking at your sample X-Verify-Credentials-Authorization I notice you are sending the realm as http://api.twitter.com . What i'm wondering is whether you are sending the X-Auth-Service-Provider as https://api.twitter.com/1/account/verify_credentials.json . According to the twaud.io API documentation the X-Auth-Service-Provider must be: https://api.twitter.com/1/account/verify_credentials.json If you change the protocol to http, or use .xml instead of .json, the request will not succeed. Double check that the verify_credentials request fits that pattern. The other thing to ensure is the request to verify_credentials isn't being sent to the Twitter API servers by your application. If the request is being sent, the OAuth Echo provider cannot use it.

Re: [twitter-dev] twaud.io api: anyone manage to get it working?
Some more debug output for completeness:
Since this is multipart form data, the oauth signature base string
would be just
httpMethod + +
url_encode( base_uri ) + +
sorted_query_params.each { | k, v |
url_encode ( k ) + %3D +
url_encode ( v )
}.join(%26)
where the params is just oauth_* stuff (not the POST params, since we
aren't url-encoded)
so something like:
POSThttp%3A%2F%2Ftwaud.io%2Fapi%2Fv2%2Fupload.jsonoauth_consumer_key%3DofEzSNkKNMzu4ANhII5g%26oauth_nonce%3D0F9ABB3E-1CC9-4124-8BDF-DEDA50AE5A6B%26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-SHA1%26oauth_timestamp%3D1298635432%26oauth_token%3D257264155-voUkUaayPjhrtW4a1Aid2lS2LshC5JDIM9p2LMXO%26oauth_version%3D1.0
(I've tried both https and http, yes being careful to make all the
various urls use the same one)

[twitter-dev] Match Friends to Users of App
I want my users to be able to see a list of their Friends from Twitter that are using my app. The problem I am running into is the return limit of 100 when using statues/friends as well as the rate limit for API calls. Also, the other thing I can't completely figure out is how to return the matched user info without maxing out my rate limit for the API. If I match 100 Friends that'll kill my rate limit quick. Any help and/or examples of how to handle this is greatly appreciated. Seth
[twitter-dev] Parsing Tweets
I'm working on an app that needs to pull specific information from tweets. I'm trying to figure out the best way with minimal impact on the tweeter. I've come across the twitterdata [http:// twitterdata.org/] movement, and the concept makes sense, however, I am not too sure about the buy-in from tweeters. It seems to be still very new and I haven't found too much discussion around it. What are your thoughts on being able to identify key=value relationships within a tweet? Do you think specific requirements to identify the key=value relationship will turn off users? Any additional thoughts or tips on tweet parsing is always welcome as well. Seth

Twitdom - A Twitter Applications Database
Hi There, I'm the founder of Twitdom - The Twitter Applications Database at http://twitdom.com/ We currently have over 350 Twitter Applications listed on the website under various categories which can be accessed via different tags as well, for convenience. I would love to get some feedback from this community on what you think of the website. Do note that its still the 1st month of the site being up! :-) Positive feedback and even criticism is welcome! We would love to build features on top of what we already have to make it more usable for all of you. Regards, Anuj
