[twitter-dev] Getting retweets in user timelines

2009-12-03 Thread Brendan
a plan to make such functionality available? Also, it would be awesome if we could get through the API that a status has been retweeted when making requests to a user's timeline. This would avoid the overhead of going through each tweet and making a statuses/retweets call. Thank you, Brendan

[twitter-dev] Re: Loose ends for List and Retweet APIs

2009-12-18 Thread Brendan
It would be good to be able to get retweets in a user's timeline. If that is not possible for backwards compatibility reasons, is it possible to have a function such as retweets_by_user which has similar semantics to retweets_by_me, except we can specify the user whose retweets are being retrieved

While we're on the matter of suggestions, could someone fix the count parameter to statuses/retweets? Currently it won't return more than 20, regardless of what count is. On Dec 18, 2:09 pm, Marcel Molina wrote: > There are some loose ends that need to be tied up in both the List and > Retweet A
