With Google Reader I get the tweets from me and my friends through rss. But since May i didn't get anymore updatesI So I deleted my feed and tried to add it again in Google Reader. But than I get the massage that my feed is not available. The URL from my feed is http://twitter.com/statuses/friends_t.... What's the problem?
I am having a problem with Twitter RSS, Facebook and LinkedIn. My RSS feed that used to work as simple RSS now requires a username/password to authenticate; my Facebook feed no longer works; and my LinkedIn status no longer updates because it can't find the username. I have my settings set to NOT protect my updates. I've seen issues like this before, but never the three of them together.
Does anyone know of a way to have the "Listening Now" item on your Last.fm profile post as an update on your Twitter page? I thought I may be able to do it using RSS, but I haven't been able to make it work.
I have added Twitter RSS to my Google Homepage, but it stopped updating several weeks ago. I have tried several things, but it still is not updating with new Tweets. I have read some topics about issues with the Google Reader, but from what I could see these were resolved, but my RSS feed is still not working on my homepage. :(
Preface: my computer's timezone, and my Twitter account's timezone, are both set to GMT-5 (Eastern Standard Time). I just posted a tweet.
* On twitter.com, this tweet shows up with the correct timestamp - 8:59am.
* On my twitter RSS feed, however, the timestamp for this same exact tweet is 1:59pm (to be more exact, Fri, 30 Nov 2007 13:59:31 +0000).
Despite my timezone setting being correct, my Twitter RSS feed seems to have time stamps in GMT+0 -which is inconvenient, since I pull my twitter RSS feed into a blog and my tweets sit on top of all my actual posts for quite a while due to these incorrect timestamps.
The Twitter RSS feed is not working for me in Apple's Mail.app (Leopard). I can see the RSS feed in Firefox and Safari. When I try to add it to Mail, it asks me for my twitter username/password and doesn't update. Sometimes an exclamation mark appears next to it with a generic error about not being able to get the feed, otherwise it fails silently.
Is this a known issue? Are there any solutions? Workarounds?
How can I add my Tweets to my WP blog? NOTHING IS WORKING!!!
I've been sifting through all of Twitter and GS's discussion threads, and zilch, nada, absolute gurnisht...I tried the badges, I tried links to use in the RSS field in my blog.
I am THISCLOSE to shunning Twitter just because of sheer frustration!!!
Help, anyone???
Can you add a RSS feature to Twitter? The thing is, despite my efforts, all my friends are on facebook but none use Twitter. Using a Twitter Facebook app, my Tweets appear as my status message, but a good way to encourage them to try Twitter would be if I could get my friends statuses RSS feed via Twitter and then respond to that via Twitter or a Twitter client like Twitterpod.
I'm getting the 70 count error all the time in Twitterific and Spaz, but both are set up to poll once every 30 minutes so I'm wondering if my Google Reader subscription is whats blowing my limit...
Does Twitter's API use any non-rss/xml/json formats? Like text/plain? It seems that one of Twitter's strengths is simplicity, which makes it counter-intuitive that there is no option to return simple text statuses. Some applications (e.g. Second Life) have problems parsing RSS, or other MIMETYPEs, and it'd be useful to be able to receive status updates as plaintext.
Is it possible to use Twitter RSS with Yahoo's "feed alert" function? When I try to plug in my Twitter RSS feed into Yahoo, it says it's not a valid feed. What gives?
Is it possible to have the rss of a protected feed.
I appreciate that might sound like a bad idea - afterall its private. Well... RSS readers do not know how to auth on web services. On top of that PITA is the fact that web crawlers will index those feeds.
Well!
You could set a robots.conf file to say "ignore this domain" and have a different subdomain for those feeds. The url to the feed could be heavily obfuscated and "random scanning" could be detected and that ip added to a black list.
Finally - a user's whose private feed has been accessed should know that it is being accessed by RSS reader - if the usage seems high they should have the option to change the obfuscation
