@fastest963: Well I was thinking of using Twitter for some nice simple
automated communication and for my application 10-15s is a little
slow.
@Alex: What do you mean works over HTTP? So I'd have to poll? How is
that a firehose solution? I'm genuinely confused.

As far as I know, the Firehose API would only be for retrieving data
from Twitter and not sending (POST).
@bham 10-15s isn't that bad? If it was over a minute then I would be
concerned. As far as the latency, I can assume that it is just because
of the caching that Twitter has put into place.
You can request your account or IP to be whitelisted via:
http://twitter.com/help/request_whitelisting
Also, depending on the account, you shouldn't be required to make many
requests a minute to check their direct messages. (Unless of course
your user is an insane DMer)
Hope that helps!
First, I would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving!
My site, http://twittertrend.net is up! It is a site that indexes
twitter and creates stats and trends about URLs posted on twitter.
Last time I checked we had indexed 1.75 million URLs! I will be
working on a way to index all of twitter'
As I don't know the entire schedule of our UX team, I can't. I would
say less than a month and closer to a week by far, but please don't
hold me to that.

When you receive a direct message twitter sends an email to you
containing the message, also if you check the headers of the email
there are some custom headers that will have the persons name and id
who sent you the message.
Here are the headers I received from a recent message:
X-Twittercreate
I'm pretty sure that email address will never be returned in any requests
from the API so using the basic username should always work.

I'd like to set up a Twitter app much like XPENSR where I take those
direct messages and do something with the data. If I just pull my
Direct message via http://twitter.com/direct_messages.xml?page=1 then
as soon as those messages hit any volume I'd hit a rate limit wouldn't
I?
Fixed!

The firehose solution should be very near realtime, and will work over HTTP.

We've mentioned this before, but yes, we assume that you're referring
to the replied-to user's last status when you don't specify which ID
you're replying to. We don't look for "@username" anywhere other than
the beginning of the status to make this guess.
