Best Twitter PHP Library

Question

Can anyone suggest which of the following Twitter PHP libraries is the best?

• My Twitter by Andres Scheffer.
• Twitter by Felix Oghina.
• TwitterLibPHP by Justin Poliey.
• Arc90_Service_Twitter by Matt Williams.
• PHP Twitter by Aaron Brazell, original code from David Billingham.
• PEAR Services_Twitter by Joe Stump and David Jean Louis.
• PHP Twitter by Tijs Verkoyen.

I would also be inclined to look at any other library not listed here.

Thank you

Answer 1

Zend_Service_Twitter from Zend Framework

Answer 2

I happen to like the PHP Twitter from Aaron Brazell, but that's because I'm a contributor to it. ;)

If you have any feedback on it, feel free to drop me an email. We're talking about a new release late this month.

Hi, I happen to Felix Oghina (the author of the Twitter class). You should use my class if you only need to update the status of a Twitter user. If you only need that, my class is perfect because it's compact and it will work with almost any PHP setup (it doesn't require any extra modules, just the basic PHP pack). If you need to do more things (like get the status of another Twitter user, get followers etc.), use some other class that is able to do those things. But there's no reason to not use my class if you only need to post a new Twitter message.
