I think this is what's called a F.A.Q. Q: How do I get "from myApp" to display on Twitter.com instead of "from API"? I set the source parameter but it has no effect. A: Register your application as an OAuth-base app and set the name there. Use of the source parameter as a means of identifying applications with Basic Auth has been deprecated for quite some time now. Q: I want to have a custom source parameter and use Basic Auth. Is this possible? A: No. -damon http://twitter.com/damon
