[Twitter] Discussion related to Twitter APIs and such

That is what I mean -- I'm confused by it. The Twitter developers 
site asks for Name, Description, Website, of the application.  Do 
I just enter dummy information here or am I createing another version 
of the same twitter app?  Just not sure what this is asking for.

For me, I've create RebTweet application. Maybe you can create P61Twitter 
for exemple. No matter. You just need to declare your application 
in order to get Consumer API Key and Secrect.

I see now -- I created P61Tweet  (anything with Twitter in the name 
is rejected).  It is not yet working, having issues logging in -- 
I suspect it is due to how quickly OAuth is refreshed.

Thank you nve!

Can someone help me.  I'm having trouble using the code:

settings:	[

        ; Source from:	http://www.ross-gill.com/page/Twitter_API_and_REBOL

        ; prerequisite:	https://dev.twitter.com/apps/new(one time for below)
        c-key:		#VPC....MLyQ		; C-Key
        c-secret:		#jYK4....POjI		; C-Secret
        u-store:		%/MyApps/TwitterUsers.r
        twitter:		http://reb4me/r/twitter.r
    ]

do settings			; assigns parms

do/args twitter context [
	Consumer-Key:	c-key
	Consumer-Secret:	c-secret
	User-Store:		u-store
	]

I get the following:

connecting to: reb4me
** Access Error: Cannot connect to reb4me
** Where: open-proto
** Near: do/args twitter context [
    Consumer-Key: c-key
    Consumer-Secret: c-secret
    User-Store: u-store
]

I must be missing a step or something.

You have a type, the correct domain name is: reb4.me
type => typo :-)

I looked at the error msg: "Cannot connect to reb4me", clicked on 
Twitter_API_and_REBOL link, searched in the page for "reb4" and saw 
that the domain you were using was wrong. :-)

Is anyone using Chris's twitter app? I can't seem to get it to send 
messages via update. I always get a unable to connect to twitter 
error. All the other refinements work.

Sorted, and added a little note to the doc (as I said I would : )
