qTwitter 0.8.2: Twitter's OAuth improving constantly
July 31st, 2009
Just a small note here – Twitter guys are messing around their OAuth authorization flow and they improved something that broke the current qTwitter. The problem was (and, well, remained) quite mysterious, because URLs produced by qTwitter to access user’s data worked e.g. with curl and didn’t work with qTwitter itself. This was solved by switching to another authorization method from provided by OAuth.
By the way, the Identi.ca support was enhanced by the ability to disfavor statuses. This was recently introduced in laconi.ca. Also the annoying bug with recognizing status as URL link in some situations was fixed.
qTwitter 0.8.2 is available from qt-apps.org :)
