bypass_twitter_timeline_limits

Workaround for the time/tweet limited main twitter timeline. Extends the timeline back as far as twitter's tweet archives go.

INFO: Handy program if you only check twitter once in a while and the timeline only goes back X hours, causing you to miss a lot of tweets.

Basic little project i made that uses twitter API(Twitter4j, the java implementation) to get the people you're following, then uses Jsoup to go to their profile page and gets all the tweets (or as far back as you set it to) from there. It also uses twitter's api directly to get the tweets of people you're following who are private. It then compiles the tweets into a timeline and writes them to an html doc.
