  `name` varchar(50) DEFAULT NULL,
  `screen_name` varchar(15) DEFAULT '',
  `tweet_text` varchar(200) DEFAULT '',

Add your database connection information to process.php

##twitter oauth credentials You will need the following from Twitter:

  • TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY
  • TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET
  • OAUTH_TOKEN
  • OAUTH_SECRET

Once you have these, replace them accordingly in twithose.php

#run

  • Run twithose.php as a process
  • Setup a cronjob to run process.php however often you'd like (try 5 minutes?)
