Hi Everyone,
I want to display all the older tweets in my application. I am using
jquery
plugin(jquery.tweet.js) for that.
I am getting only 9 days old tweets. Is it possible to get all the
older
tweets. If yes, please help me out.
Thanks.
Although I am not too familiar with that plugin, I am familiar with
Twitter’s APIs. The Twitter API’s are fairly limited in their ability
to return historical content. The number of tweets and how far back
they go, depends on the number of tweets that match your criteria.
For example, if you were to use their search api for a trending topic,
chances are you will only receive a sample of content going back a few
minutes. However, if you try and access keywords that are not used
often, you will get virtually 100% of the results going back several
weeks.
Hope that helps.
