[twitter-dev] Streaming API not returning any data

2010-04-19 Thread Amitab
two streaming sessions, one from my host machine and another from my test machine, and both sessions had the same issue at the same time. Does Twitter recommend that we break the connection if no data arrives in some time and then restart it? /Amitab Twaller.com(@mytwaller) -- Subscription

Hi folks, Is there a way by which I can get streaming results tracking a combination of words. For example, is it possible to get streaming results which track the keyword "San Francisco" i.e, San AND Francisco. I could track "San" OR "Francisco" and then filter out for "San" AND " Francisco" but

[twitter-dev] Dynamic redirect URL after OAuth login

2009-11-11 Thread Amitab
Hi, Is there a way to support dynamic URLs being loaded after OAuth login? My website has multiple URLs from where a user can sign-in. I want the user to come back to same Url where they were before clicking on the Sign_in button. Can I ask Twitter OAuth to redirect to an Url of my choice by sup

Hi Raffi, Very interesting and useful since Twitter has so much data. Could you elaborate more on how you identify that a tweet is of a particular location. From the data twitter collects, there are three main sources that come to mind: 1) Location in the profile of the user. 2) Geo tagged twee

For me, the biggest pain with Oauth is when the redirection to Twitter gives a "Twitter is busy, too many people are tweeting" response. For websites/ applications that are pretty small, each person who is willing to try out is immensely valuable. I hate it when I loose that person (probably perma

[twitter-dev] How does search get affected by Retweet APIs

2009-09-28 Thread Amitab
Retweets get returned by search. Since there is sometimes no pattern to identifying Retweets (Repople use RT in many ways), a text matching algorithm frequently does not identify the retweets. I wonder if the Retweet functionality will solve my problem. Thanks, Amitab Follow Twaller @mytwaller PS

As a developer who has recent launched Twaller (http:// www.twaller.com) which supports OAuth, I think I should share my perspective on this. I really loved OAuth because: (1) Ease of coding. I could get OAuth working within a couple of days. Saves me any password maintenance, encryption etc. (2
