Ross Gardler commented on WOOKIE-142:
-------------------------------------
In addition to the issues in the previous comment a code review shows:
/**
* gup
* Get URL Parameters
* Credit:
* http://www.netlobo.com/url_query_string_javascript.html
*/
This code is (c) and we cannot include it without permission from the author.
Looking at the site I'd say that the author is happy for it to be reused but
permission is not explicitly granted, hence we will need to contact them. Of
course, it may be easier to rewrite that bit of code as it is not exactly
rocket science.

> This is just a first stab to extending the same methods as Flickr and YouTube
> widgets into Twitter...
> It works for read only right now (search by Tweet text or User tweets)
> For Tweeting/status updates, there is a slight problem with the
> authentication in the OAuth signing directly from Javascript via the OAuth JS
> library, so, this may be one case of a widget which does require a
> server-side OAuth proxy to relay access tokens securely (although, I have
> seen Yahoo! YQL used to authenticate remotely to Twitter, so it may still be
> possible)
