Agree. Anyway, if user just setups desktop app to his computer, he
already gives it much more than just login/password to some service.
And
Versoin 2.0.9 is not meant to introduce tons of bugs, it actually
*fixes* tons of bugs of course.

Doug,
Is there any status update on this issue? Users are really starting to
get frustrated with results and wondering what the status is on things
getting back to being consistent...
Thanks!

All,
Just a question along the same lines as Dmitriy's, and forwarding no

Hi guys,
I have gone into the same problem : my app uses OAuth to post tweets
and went ok over the weekend but on Monday, Twitter started refusing
OAuth posts. My app then tries to post using basic method, and it
works.
I also implemented OAuth using Shannon Whitley's example, which I

I am trying to post a URL to a Twitter status that has a "@" character

Twitter from interpreting the "@" as a username?

I read this discussion carefully and I cannot extract a conclusion...
The question is why a set of API methods are working and others aren't
working properly, returning a 'Incorrect signature' error.
Methods working now:

- extract user timeline (st

Here's TwitterOAuth.vb, the OAuth class I'm using for my Twitter
client.

This is a VB.NET port of Shannon Whitley's C# class, with a few tweaks
and extensions. My client's still a 0.5 alpha, so it's entirely
possible that there are still holes in this. If you find any,

If a user is protected, any attempt to follow them creates a request
they must approve. Is there any API for retrieving these pending
requests, and approving or denying them?
I don't see anything in the docs, so I'm guessing not, but thought it
couldn't hurt to ask.
Thanks...
Oh my goodness! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I didn't know you can
do that! Not that is serves my purpose for the question I asked but
it's a gem - I already have a fantastic idea for a killer app :)

OH. missed the url part. Could you URL-escape it? That is, instead of using

Brad,
Encryption on disk and encryption over the wire are not the issues and
really don't have very much to do with the Basic vs. OAuth decision.
The most important issue I see is that Basic Auth requires you to give
your Twitter credentials to a person you do not know. This is a BAD
IDEA.

I am using ASP .NET (VB) to try and authenticate using oAuth. I have
been able to get a request token and direct a user to Twitter's
authentication page. Twitter then redirects back to my app. At that
point I attempt to get an access token, but I continue to receive 401
"unauthorized" errors.
Duane,

closer to the actual issue. Your example of turning Twitter
credentials to a stranger basically makes the application (or

The query for the trending topic is "#HootSuite 2" but when you click
on it, it says that no results were found. However if you just search
#HootSuite 2 (no quotes) it returns all the appropriate results

OAuth lets you access the Twitter service without giving your Twitter
credentials to anyone but Twitter.
Basic Auth requires you to give your Twitter credentials to someone
other than Twitter.
Therefore, OAuth is more secure than Basic Auth.
This is not rocket science.

Hi,
I got the token secret & aouth_token through

I used following url. Where in i filled like below and put in the

It asked me username/password
Personally I've found JavaScript based auth systems like Facebook Connect
and Google Friend Connect to be very difficult to debug and use. I am also a
lot more comfortable with PHP then JS.
As far as UX. Sign in with Twitter has the same flow as FBC and GFC. Click a

just add the one more input parameter oauth_verifier for pin in
