Get Twitter Friends Time Line Using a Mashup

Milinda has posted how to Get Your Twitter Friends Time Line Using libcurl. I thought of publishing a alternative mechanism to doing it. How about getting your twitter friends time line using the WSO2 Mashup Server? Well is pretty simple and straight forward. Here is the code (Just a few lines of code),

function getTwitterFriendsTimeline(){
var request = new WSRequest();
request.open("GET","http://twitter.com/statuses/friends_timeline.xml?count=5", false, "username","password");
request.send(null);
return request.responseE4X;
}

Pretty simple ha! If you wanted you could have published this on mooshup and have it run for you 24*7 for you. Of course you might want to do something with this data to make it a useful mashup.

Twitter SPY displays the Twitter public timeline in a fancy and addictive way. Twitter's recent outages seem to address that at least partially paging backwards in your personal friends timeline is scaled back, as are examining.
