[twitter-dev] Re: Promoted Content: API Changes
I Agree with Tom. Please explain more on how this will benefit end- users and developers and not simply be a revenue stream for you. Thanks. On Aug 9, 8:50 pm, Tom van der Woerdt i...@tvdw.eu wrote: Hi Matt and other developers, If I understand correctly, Promoted Trends are advertisements, and they aren't necessarily trending topics. Basically what Twitter is trying to do here is let the desktop clients show Twitter's advertisements as well? Is there any benefit to the developers and/or the users for doing this? Correct me if I am completely wrong (wouldn't be the first time today) but Twitter is offering it's own advertisements to developers - I don't see why any developer would implement that.

To date, these products have been shown to users on Twitter.com. Over time, we plan to extend the products to ecosystem partners. Today, we made an update to one of our APIs that gets us closer to that objective. Clients using the API will see new fields related to promoted content in the response they get back from the /1/trends/current.json request and any local trends requests. These two new data points will show in the json response as events and promoted_content. We are still building the data points out and have more updates to make. Whilst that is happening, the two data points won't be able to return any useful content, and instead will have a value of 'null'. Over the next few months, we will begin beta testing with a handful of desktop applications. During this period, we aim to learn a lot, and we will apply those lessons when we expand distribution of Twitter Promoted Products to the broader ecosystem. We'll continue to keep you posted on other developments and changes as they happen. Best, Matt -- Matt Harris Developer Advocate, Twitter http://twitter.com/themattharris

Hey Scott -
If you've already linkified Twitter usernames yourself according to
the pattern used by the @anywherelinkifyUsers() method (@a
href=../a, then you can tell hovercards not to linkify as
follows:
twttr.anywhere(function (T) {
T.hovercards({ linkify: false });
});
If your anchor elements include the @ symbol, and/or use a different
class name, you can configure hovercards as follows:
twttr.anywhere(function (T) {
T(.YOUR_CLASS_NAME).hovercards({ infer: true });
});
For more, see the docs:http://dev.twitter.com/pages/anywhere_begin#hovercards

Hi, been playing with the @anywherestuff, very excited about this!
I know its still a work in progress and things may change, but is
there a way to make hovercards() work as normal for onmouseover, but
let my javascript handle the onclick event, rather than sending the
user off to their twitter profile page?
Currently if I link @screenname myself, hovercards() ignores it, so
its one or the other.
Cheers,
Scott

[twitter-dev] Re: Can't change application settings
Yeah I get this trying to update my app's image, and also my twitter user_image_url On Aug 7, 6:31 pm, adamsinger adamsi...@gmail.com wrote: I'm trying to enable Use Twitter for login, but whenever I check the box and click Save, my browser just hangs and I am redirected to a blank /oauth_clients/update page. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
[twitter-dev] Re: Twitter: What did you change in OAuth?
It's quite funny I suppose, been using basic auth forever, last week change over to OAuth...today, concidering going back, give a couple of years to iron out the bugs and maybe try again. I'm using Abraham Williams' PHP twitter OAuth library, I don't suppose anyone has found a fix for this? getting simply 'Invalid signature' is about as helpful as an unknown error occurred Cheers.

[twitter-dev] Re: Twitter: What did you change in OAuth?
Twitter Status : ... Is adding feature to his app so it can switch between OAuth and Basic for when OAuth breaks again. :-) Well, at least Basic auth's phase-out date has been pushed back another year.
