I don't know the Twitter API, but you're calling GetUserTimeline with a count of 3, which presumably returns a list of 3 items. The list itself doesn't have a 'created_at' attribute, hence the error. Perhaps if you did: tweet = twitter.Api().GetUserTimeline(settings.TWITTER_USER, count=3) [0] you would have better luck. -- DR. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
