[erlang-questions] Twitter Account Activity API (webhooks) problems

[Peter Andersson]

Excellent! Thanks a lot for the pointers guys! I'll go check it out!

As far as I understand, Twitter changed the activity API from a streaming
interface to webhooks earlier this year. Don't know if/how the method for
authentication changed at the same time, but webhook registration must be
new requirement.
