Hey Gohar
The number of result matches is not given.
The volume of tweets is so great, that results are given only as far
back as 7 days time, and many queries would not deliver the full
result set.
Thanks

You just have to loop through and count manually. There is no number
coming from twitter.

Thanks, Gabriele. Fixed!
glad to be helpful, but it's only fixed in one of the two sentences,
check the above one :)
When should I use https instead of http in twitter api calls?
I'd guess that it's okay to use http for oauth-authenticated /show/
user and maybe /statuses/update, but what about the four oauth calls (/
oauth/request_token, /oauth/authorize, /oauth/authenticate, and /oauth/
access_token)?
Anytime you are sending authentication information you should use https.
I personally use https for everything.

HTTPS is a secure and encrypted transfer protocol for HTTP. HTTPS is
designed to hide sensitive data (passwords, credit card numbers)
from malicious persons. So it's safe to say that whenever you will be
transferring sensitive data (OAuth, passwords) you should use HTTPS.

This sounds a lot more sensible...
Importantly, where can we expect this new payload to be returned...
any of the following methods as well?
REST API
statuses/mentions
statuses/user
Streaming API/Shadow
I need to know in advance of such an addition to any of these, as
otherwise the parser on
I have registered my application, but I dont know how to change the
'sent from web' text once i update my status on twitter, can you help?
my code is:
Twitter t = new Twitter(txtusr.Text, txtpwd.Text, Todd's
application);
thankyou
Somehow I suspect that no, we probably can't help.
But putting that initial feeling aside: have you read the documentation?
The parts that talk about the source parameter not working with
HTTP Basic Auth -- only works with OAuth ?

In that case can you tell me how to authorize my application without
going through pages of code in OAuth?
The authenticated calls are signed with a 'secret' but don't return
secret information.
The /oauth calls are also signed with a secret but do return secret
information.

You have to use the OAuth process for the user to authorize your
application. There is no way around this.

RTFM buddy. You gotta make some effort here on your own. You want
people to write your code? Hire a consultant. You can reach me at the
number below.
Note: there are plenty of dead-simple OAuth howtos and even
fully-fledged libraries out there in your language of choice to put
this together
I am not entirely sure how retweets work that is what I mean't, i see
the retweet numbers on people's site and I was wondering if that is
just how many people retweeted that specific link from their site or
if that is an overall of how many people around the web retweeted that
link.

Hi Doug, Alex Ryan,
We need your immediate help.
Right now Twitter users are not being able to authenticate through the
TweetPhoto photo sharing API at tweetphotoapi.com.
9 times out of 10, no one can upload a photo through the platform and
receive, error message - invalid twitter
Is it possible to lookup lots of user_ids from screenames without
being rate limited? I'm doing a 1 time import into our db and need to
get it done asap.
Just started hearing some hints (http://thenextweb.com/2009/10/02/
twitter-labs/) about a 'twitter labs' in the works.
I think this would be pretty neat. I've had some ideas about enhancing
twitter's web ui for a while now but have had to do so via
bookmarklets.
On the other side I could see
I have been reading about the Twitter Geo stuff - it all sounds
exciting - and I'd like to start playing with it even it's not fully
prime time. Supposedly it's available to some extent via the API. I
see the geo/ tag in my feed, and I wonder how I can opt in and get
it populated. Also, can
