    Twitter’s API is REST-based and will return results as either XML or JSON, as well as both RSS and ATOM feed formats.
    For a very simple look at a typical data response fire up a terminal window and type: 1
    curl twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.rss. That line will give you the latest 20 tweets from the public timeline in the form of an RSS feed. To get the same results in JSON just change the extension to “.json”.
    Public timelines can be accessed by any client, but all other Twitter methods require authentication.
