The @USGovNews Team loves us some Twitterfeed. It is the workhorse behind all the posting we do. That said, sometimes we have trouble.
Today was one of those days...
Twitterfeed is supporting the twitter OAuth beta, but for some reason today, we started getting lots of "401 unauthorized" failures. These became obvious as we started checking our tr.im statistics and we had a string of about 20 tweets with no traffic. That is pretty uncommon for us.
So we did what your would expect. we tried to re-authenticate to twitter using OAuth,
and waited...
No help.
Then we tried changing to non-OAuth Authentication (UserID and passwords),
and waited...
No Dice.
So we just started deleting feeds and rebuilding them.
Painful, but it seems to be working...
Yes ! Back up and running again!
Thanks Twitterfeed!
We really do LOVE your services!
Without you, we would be nothing. Really, it is true!
Thanks,
The @USGovNews Team
