I suspect this would be an unspeakably bad idea when spammers find out

You certainly can, if you want, but my point is not to rely on this. T
I opened my first twitter account and I am getting the feel of it.
I see I can delete entries.
So if I delete an article on my web site wouldn't be better to delete
the tweets related to it in my twitter account?
So basically I would do the following:

How do you enforce bots registering as bots, however?

Can I be sure the the status ID's returned by twitter will always be
different?

Hello,
When POSTing an update_profile, the returned user information element
doesn't actually contain the updated information; it contains the old
values for the user. This doesn't seem quite right.
I can understand it not being updated in other requests, caching and
all, but can the response to
Here's the latest example of bots drowning out actual posts:

Of 11 visible results:
4 are actual content (although 2 are ReTweets, which is another issue
altogether, but at least they are humans)
7 are bots.
Almost 2x as many bots as actual

There was a bug that was addressed and recently fixed for a similar
issue in users/show
http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/detail?id=162
You might want to file a similar bug for user_timeline, though I'm not
sure if the new parameters for users/show will already work for
user_timeline..
Hi everybody, Twitter!
If I request the API "http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/
bob.json " you'll see Bob's timeline.
2 of my followers have the numbered usernames: http://twitter.com/1250
& http://twitter.com/6868
If I request the API with their 'usernames':
http://twitter.com/statuse
That's what I'm afraid of.
I'll get in line and wait for twitter groups.
Thank you all.
all the best

No, because you cannot make the accounts dynamically. That's why groups
is pretty much your only solution for something like what you're proposing.
@Cameron You're right. It would work just like that. How about my

Have you considered popularizing hashtags for each of these
communities. You could then search on the hashtag rather than the
individual users.

Hello all,
I developed a job search engine for twitter using two weekends, and
thought someone may be interested.
A few hightlights:
1. uses twitter data mining feeds to collect data
2. uses libsvm classifier and a few hardcoed twitter id to identify
job posts

Adrian,
Date formats have been a problem in the past. Issue 206 [1], scheduled
for API V2, will handle the API's normalization of dates.

Not without work. You can do that in three ways:
- Get the public timeline/firehose with the API, and filter it to the people
you want.
- Make a user that follows
Marcos,
That query would work.
It sounds like you are truly trying to follow a group of users. If
this is the case, have you thought of creating a new Twitter account
and requesting the friends timeline periodically thus letting Twitter
handle the aggregation?

Sure. The public timeline, or the firehose (requires special arrangement).

Does anybody know is it possible to get a timeline feed with updates

count certain requests against an authenticated user. These request
should theoretically not be much if any more expensive in CPU or
bandwidth than the rate limit check itself.
