Are geotagged tweets visually apparent?

[Jeffrey Friedl]

I'm testing geotagging in an app, and the reply to the status update
indicates that the geotagged location was accepted, but when I view
the tweet on twitter.com, I can find no indication that the tweet has
been geotagged. In the end, I can't tell the difference between
failure and success...

I was under the impression that the "not yet available on the web
site" comment was for users geotagging their tweets from twitter.com,
but it seems that geotagging is completely invisible on the web site?

Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,

The Twitter web site does not display geotag information. Use a
Twitter service that does, such as http://bccth.is, to confirm
successful tagging of your tweets. Of course, retrieving the tweets in
question via the API, would also reveal the geotag info.

Best,

Michael

Firstly I'm not an iPhone/iPad/iPod developer nore do I even own one,
however I belive neigther of the two devices has the ablity to
multi-task, so surely that would make oAuth on either impossabul, as the
application couldn't call up a browser window/page.

Hopefuly someone more skilled in Apple development can point out the
error in my logic here.

An iPhone OS app can launch its own child browser control (UIWebView).

It is actually pretty easy. You save the request_token in your application and send the user to the browser to authorized access. When the user has finished authorizing the application they get directed back to the application by the iPhone through a custom protocol handler used as your callback URL. The user is now back in your application and the access_token can be  retrieved.
