Handling the Twitter Stream API with Ruby

I've been doing a lot of things with the Twitter API lately. More on that another time though. I started messing around with their stream API last night. It's pretty fun to play with and I wanted to put the code up somewhere so I can use it later. Right now it works, but it clearly isn't very robust. It needs retry logic and better error handling. Right now, it's just a toy :)

You'll need the json gem installed. Once you have that you can run the script like...
./twitter_stream.rb <username> <password>

Twitters from Java One

Tim O'Brien is out at javaone and twittering out some updates. From what I hear, JavaFX ain't too shabby. Check out Tim's Twitter page and 'follow' him for updates.

Playing with Twitter

Following Gary Vaynerchuk's lead, I joined Twitter. If you'd like to join with me I registered as NewbNamedRay. NewbNamedRay is my wine-related alter ego :P
