For example, take a look at TO - http://twitter.com/users/show/terrellowens.xml

Hi All,
GAE sites are problematic for the Twitter/Search API because the IPs
making outgoing requests are fluid and cannot as such be easily
allowed for access. Also, since most IPs are shared, other
applications on the same IPs making requests mean that fewer requests
per app get through.

Another significant thought... could you 'please' consider changing
the name of the user node INSIDE the retweeted_status node to say
retweeted_user ?
Thius will make JSON parsing way simpler... especially if the goal is
to extract the retweeted_status when present; or do things like

Actually, the account/verify_credentials call also returns the most recent
status for the authenticated user. Plus, as a benefit, it's a non-rate
limited call.

No, please don't change that to retweeted_user ... the data structure

Sure, I'm just using a whitelisted account to query twitter for the

John,
Based on your description, it looks like you are on the verge of being able
to offer a very useful capability: the ability to query the follows AND
unfollows since the last time you checked. That would be a great addition to
the API.
For example, I'd really like to be able to page through
KC, I understand for your own app, but why would you want to log the user
out of other apps or Twitter itself? That seems like a security issue to me
if it were possible. Each app should have its own control and
responsibility over when it logs the user out. Maybe I'm missing something?

Hi Chad,
I am sorry but that doesn't even help in the slightest.
You are essentially saying that we shouldn't develop on the App
Engine, since would now have to also buy a proxy. Which is completely
unfeasible and defeats the purpose of why people are using the app
engine.

There is no snapshotting. 5,000 edges are returned on each call. Few

No. If we are to offer real-time social graph changes, they'll be via
the Streaming API. In the mean time, there is no low-latency high-
throughput way to determine changes to the social graph. Attempts to
simulate this at large scale via repeated polling are likely to be
