Adding to camera roll would be a great feature!

Thanks!

Filed an enhancement for this. Not sure there's API to set the wallpaper directly, but downloading to the camera roll should be doable.

Subject to photographer permissions, of course.

Adding pictures to camera roll seconded.

Ah yes, if possible that would be nice.

Set as Wallpaper (or, add to Camera Roll)

Fraser,

Great job with Exposure, and congrats on getting it into the app store at launch time!

The first thing I looked for when I was looking through my Flickr images, was the ability to set one of my Flickr images as my iPhone's wallpaper for the lock screen.

I'm not sure if this is possible using the API you're given, so an alternative idea would be adding the image to the device's camera roll, where I could set my wallpaper later (lame from a "minimize taps" point of view).

Anyway, congrats on the success so far!

Status blog shows another increase--to 100 requests per hour. Fantastic! Am getting occasional time outs, but Twitterific is still otherwise running smoothly. – ecsalomon, on July 11, 2008 02:13

A comment on the question "Tweet Limit Exceeded" in Twitter:

Wow, I hope they're able to keep it at 70. I saw from the Twitter Development Google Group that they had initially raised it to 40 before raising it to 70. The last two maintenance downtimes must have allowed them to add more headroom. – mdy, on July 09, 2008 05:09

A comment on the question "Tweet Limit Exceeded" in Twitter:

I am seeing the same thing. I've had twitterific updating every three minutes for almost an hour and have gotten no errors. – ecsalomon, on July 09, 2008 04:53

Is it just me or has the API rate limit been raised to 70?!

It still says 20 in the Twitter Status blog but I'm seeing 70 on the rate_limit_status API call

mdy replied on July 08, 2008 10:27 to the question "Tweet Limit Exceeded" in Twitter:

Hello. The negative API rate limit behavior is currently logged as an open bug in the Twitter API bug tracking system.

Fwiw, the person who logged the bug says that when they change their user password, the problem gets fixed. I don't know if the fix is temporary or permanent, though.

I turned all clients off and removed the Twitter app from Facebook - then waited until the rate limit for my account reset to 20. I launced Tweetdeck and it successfully retrieved my Tweets...once. Upon checking the rate limit again, I've found it to be "-1" and it keeps counting into the negatives each time Tweetdeck tries to retrieve! - This only happens one of my accounts. The other account I have works just fine. So frustrating.

UPDATE: As completely odd as this is, after changing my password yet again to no avail, I finally did lower the number of requests per hour and just left Twhirl on . . . and it eventually worked! I don't know why one request per day was being denied, and then lowering the limit allowed 30 per hour, but that's what happened. I haven't tried Netvibes again yet, partially because I don't really use Netvibes much anymore for anything. :D

I've been having this problem with any twitter client I've tried for the last couple of weeks now. I've throttled the requests down to the very lowest level to no avail. I was offline the whole weekend, and still came in yesterday and was immediately given the limit exceeded message. I tried changing my password, and that made no difference at all.

GreenSmith replied on May 28, 2008 00:59 to the question "Tweet Limit Exceeded" in Twitter:

@phlegon hmm, not sure what to tell you. You've changed it and restarted, or just changed it? Perhaps restarting Twhirl would help...What level did you set it at? Lower then 30?

A comment on the question "Tweet Limit Exceeded" in Twitter:

@GreenSmith That would only help if this were a genuine exceeding of the limit. After 24+ hours of inactivity, it STILL says that the limit has been exceeded. I don't receive a single update--the very first request that Twhirl sends is rejected. I could set it as low as it will go and it wouldn't help. :( – phlegon, on May 28, 2008 00:08

GreenSmith replied on May 27, 2008 21:02 to the question "Tweet Limit Exceeded" in Twitter:

@phlegon did you change your network settings on Twhirl? Changing them to 30 for me has gone from having the exact same problem you're mentioning, to none. Depending on your Twitter use, you can easilly tweak how often you get @s DMs, and Tweets each within that 30 per hour limit. Since DMs go to your email, you could make those the least frequent, and get the others quite frequently.
