I’ve been trying to use tweet.im since the morning of 2008-12-20 and whenever I’m logged into my gtalk account, I get the error in the title from the .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) contact every 5 minutes and in that whole time I’ve never gotten any of the status updates from those I’m following.  I have, however, been able to update my status just fine.

In this post Mickaël Rémond says:

This is a pure Twitter error: It means that the API was not available to reply.

Does this mean it’s down forever or just for now?  Is anyone else experiencing this?  Remember it’s been going on for two days now.  Any help is appreciated!

It is not down forever. It works fine for us and it seems solve for the other contact.
What if you problem ?

What might I do to try and isolate the difference between my setup and those for whom this is currently working?

Sorry, I don’t understand what you’re asking here.  Can you clarify?

Thanks for replying!

I mean what is your problem ?
Is it the 400 error ?

I mean what is your problem ?
Is it the 400 error ?

Yup, every five minutes.  I can send updates, so that works just fine.  But I don’t *recieve* updates and I get the 400 error every 5 minutes.

Thanks again!

Do you run other client at the same time ?

I had gmail up (with chat in it).  So I logged out of gmail, quit and restarted my browser, and left only my jabber client up.  I still get the 400 errors every five minutes and I don’t get any status updates.

I mean do you have another Twitter client running on your account ?

I mean do you have another Twitter client running on your account ?

Nope, not when I was testing.

Strange.
I will have a look at your account tomorrow to check why Twitter reply for your account with this message.
Did you change your Twitter password but did not updated Tweet.im ?

I have exactly the same problem… nothing to add…

Ok, we are having a look to see if there is something special with your account.

I wonder how you would know my account? I connected tweet.im and Jabber before I registered here… anyway, my Twitter name is “Konzertheld”...

I can simply put trace on server to check a more detailed reply on error return by twitter (in this case code 400).
But thank you.
I have am looking at the Twitter trace right now.

I think I see the problem. Stay tuned…
