[twitter-dev] Inconsistent responses for particular users -- data for users/show, but Not found for statuses/friends

2010-02-24 Thread Josh Bleecher Snyder 
Hi,

I'm getting what look like inconsistent responses from the API for a
particular small handful of users. I'm sure I'm doing something
stupid, but I can't figure out what; any insight would be appreciated.
Here is a sample pair of problematic calls/responses:

curl http://api.twitter.com/1/users/show.json?screen_name=johncow;
{profile_background_image_url:http://a3.twimg.com/profile_background_images/32506867/johncow1280x960.jpg,description:Blogger,

Christian!,friends_count:101,profile_link_color:ff,status:{in_reply_to_status_id:null,truncated:false,created_at:Wed
Feb 24 13:40:54 +
2010,in_reply_to_user_id:null,source:web,favorited:false,in_reply_to_screen_name:null,id:9575982473,text:ok,
enough of my ramble on
http://bit.ly/974IBY},statuses_count:2280,profile_background_tile:false,created_at:Thu
Jan 10 20:28:50 +
2008,favourites_count:0,profile_background_color:FF,contributors_enabled:false,profile_image_url:http://a1.twimg.com/profile_images/715616398/6531_138428637906_616647906_3253838_680520_n_normal.jpg,geo_enabled:false,profile_sidebar_fill_color:e0ff92,lang:en,notifications:false,screen_name:johncow,following:false,verified:false,time_zone:Eastern
Time (US  
Canada),profile_sidebar_border_color:87bc44,protected:false,location:Sault
Ste Marie, Canada,name:Jason
Katzenback,id:12084472,utc_offset:-18000,profile_text_color:00,followers_count:13245,url:http://www.johncow.com}

So johncow exists, has friends, etc. But:

curl http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/friends.json?screen_name=johncow;
{request:/1/statuses/friends.json?screen_name=johncow,error:Not found}

Any vision into what I've screwed up?

Thanks,
Josh

http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/friends.json?screen_name=johncow just
worked fine for me. It might have been a temporary issue.

Confirmed -- works again for me. Looks like it was a temporary bump,
indeed. Thanks, Abraham.
