OAuth - there already a fix/workaround for the Unicode issue, but still I feel it isn't stable enough. Once we have something working, we will post a request for beta testers - stay tuned :)

Advanced instructions - I guess we should add that. We also thought of auto generating the XML file of the filter for the users.

You're quite welcome, Arik! :)

Yes, Filttr has been testing OAuth for a while too, and there are a few bugs in Twitter's OAuth API that aren't present in the regular API.

Thank you for the post and the instructions !

Re. OAuth - we already working on it. It was a bit unstable (and shutdown) lately, so we still think what will be the best way to add support for it at Topify.
