Thanks to Dave and natefanaro, the Perl doc is quite clear, but I could not find a suitable property or method that retrieves just my twits, the ones I generate from my account.
thanks to Dave's suggestion I found the answer, which is the following: use Net::Twitter; use Data::Dumper; my $nt = Net::Twitter->new( traits => [qw/API::REST/], username => 'user', password => 'pass' ); my $timeline = $nt->user_timeline; for my $tweet (@$timeline) { print $tweet->{created_at} . ': ' . $tweet->{text}; } working perfectly. Thanks again > Your $nt is just the interface to the API.
