Hi David,
Every request was either authenticated (both oauth and normal basic
auth) or outside the rate limiting criteria, I.e posts.
Regardless the situation seems to not be occuring now, it is just
trying to get to the bottom of the problem as there were proper app
engine exceptions but that could be a result of the status code
returned.

Hey Paul.
Are you authenticating, or querying the API anonymously? Anonymous
queries regularly get rate limit exceeed errors from AppEngine,
since Twitter limit IP addresses to 100 queries per hour, and
AppEngine urlfetch service only makes requests from a small set of
addresses.
The solution is to create Twitter account(s) for your application, or
if it is acting on behalf of specific Twitter users, add OAuth
consumer support to your code and have the users authorize your
application, so the queries are charged to their accounts instead.
If you are getting ApplicationError exceptions, well that is something
altogether different.

Hi Guys,
My Site www.twollo.com is having some issues connection to
Twitter. It is
hosted on the Google App Engine. I am just emailing to ask is
anyone else
on the App engine experiencing problems connecting to Twitter?
I have tested some of my other sites that use urllib on the Google
App
engine and all appear to be able to make successful http
connections to
other sites: such as yahoo etc.
I have also tested some other Twitter Applications that I know that
are
hosted on the App Engine. I am trying to isolate the problem, is
it the App
Engine end, is it Twitter (have they blocked Google) Any ideas
are
welcome?
Hopefully it will right itself. :)
Paul
