I’m using a similar technique, but the output of Yahoo Pipes is sent to IFTTT, which pushes tweets into my BufferApp – that way I tweet on a regular, nicely-spaced out (in time) basis, as controlled by Buffer, rather than all at once as determined by when the original tweets occur.

I must admit, at first when I made my first yahoo pipes feed, I got overwhelmed and so complicated but once I got the feel of it, I got comfortable and I love using it now.

Does this still work now that twitter has removed the RSS feeds?

All the RSS feeds are live. They just removed the links but not the functionality: http://www.searchenginepeople.com/blog/twitter-search-rss.html

I just started using Yahoo! Pipes, and at first I must admit, it’s a bit complicated to use, but once you got the hang out of it, it’s pretty cool tool and very useful.

Seems twitter no longer allows those RSS feeds for search terms. Anyone know a solution that works with the above solution?

My Twitter bot fails to add a space between the user name and the content of the tweet. They are all formatted like this:

RT @UserNameThis is content…

Should be
RT @UserName This is content…

So how do I get a space between user name and content?

Hello, I just have a question as to whether or not this would work for an application I am looking into. I am trying to Retweet all tweets either Tweet’ed by other Twitter handles when mentioning this original handle/account

ex. @Twitterhandle2: @Twitterhandle1 is great

so that @Twitterhandle1 RT this.

for the original Twitter handle/account to RT all tweets mentioning one hashtag

ex. @anyTwitterhandle man i love this #greatidea

so that @Twitterhandle1 RT any tweet (worldwide) that includes the hashtag @greatidea

would either of these work with this RT bot?
