- You can try out the new iTwtr prototype at http://v2.itwtr.com/1:47 AM Nov 30th, 2008 from iTwtr
- Started work on iTwtr 2.0. It's going to be a total complete rewrite, with a different approach: JsonP + client-side storage (no backend!)2:07 AM Nov 22nd, 2008 from web
- @bk_whopper Sounds like a bug. I think it's kind of a fundamental bug with how iTwtr gets its content. I need to switch some stuff around.6:48 AM Jun 24th, 2008 from iTwtr in reply to bk_whopper
- @bk_whopper That's weird, you don't see any tweets at all, or it doesn't update with the very newest ones?4:27 AM Jun 24th, 2008 from iTwtr in reply to bk_whopper
- @benkreeger That particular line can be safely commented out, but there are other PHP5 dependencies. Especially the SimpleXML parsing.3:16 PM Jun 16th, 2008 from iTwtr in reply to kreeger
- That means I will approximate the friend timeline by using cron + API to include private profiles and those w/o profile images.8:31 AM May 8th, 2008 from iTwtr
- So it's been a week since I posted v1.4. I've been playing with Jabber/XMPP tweet delivery. Way more efficient, but trickier to build. Soon!8:06 AM May 8th, 2008 from iTwtr
- Just posted a "zombie tweet." It's in my iTwtr database, but it didn't make it onto Twitter.com. Probably due to being over my usage limit.7:03 PM May 1st, 2008 from iTwtr
- Posted version 1.4. Release notes here: http://itwtr.com/1.4.txt5:27 AM May 1st, 2008 from iTwtr
- Oh, right, a possible third route is that they might provide an *actual* friend timeline over Jabber. No clue when that might happen though.8:31 PM Apr 30th, 2008 from iTwtr
- But the bottom line is that cron + API for everything won't scale up at all. Two possible routes: not-a-hosting-service or hacky Jabber.8:28 PM Apr 30th, 2008 from iTwtr
- I could approximate a friend timeline, but it would still require cron + API for those with private accounts or no profile image.8:26 PM Apr 30th, 2008 from iTwtr
- So I've been researching the Jabber thing. One other weird contingency is that it only broadcasts tweets from users with profile images.8:24 PM Apr 30th, 2008 from iTwtr
- Posted version 1.3. Release notes here: http://itwtr.com/1.3.txt9:17 PM Apr 29th, 2008 from iTwtr
- After testing a bit on another machine, it seems the long running API calls are due to Twitter and not my shared hosting.8:57 AM Apr 29th, 2008 from iTwtr
- Posted version 1.2. Release notes here: http://itwtr.com/1.2.txt8:54 AM Apr 29th, 2008 from iTwtr
- Still getting freakishly long connection times. One call took 100 sec according to cron notification. Not sure if it's Dreamhost or Twitter.6:07 AM Apr 29th, 2008 from iTwtr
- Last night I was getting cron emails once a minute, complaining about 50+ sec API calls. Possible solution: bail after 5 seconds of waiting.5:38 AM Apr 29th, 2008 from iTwtr
- The alternative is running a Jabber/XMPP server, but that method will only work for public tweets. Maybe that's good enough for most people?1:20 PM Apr 28th, 2008 from iTwtr
- Coming to terms with the inherent scaling limitations of cron + Twitter API. A significant boost in users will probably break itwtr.1:15 PM Apr 28th, 2008 from iTwtr
