Just a quicky to note that twitter switched off the old school (original) API last night.
Where you used to use http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline
you now have to use https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statusus/user_timeline
I’ve updated the Weatherbot page (and the weatherbot itself) to reflect this change. In case you’re not aware, the Weatherbot is a sort of tutorial into how to use OAuth and the Twitter API.
Unfortunately, this change also broke my tweetrate calculator, and my twitter timeline on the front page. They should be fixed now, but they still use v1 of the API which is due to be switched off at some point….
