Narrows the resulting list of direct messages to just those sent after the specified HTTP-formatted date, up to 24 hours old. The same behavior is available by setting the If-Modified-Since parameter in your HTTP request. Ex: http://twitter.com/direct_messages/sent.xml?since=Tue%2C+27+Mar+2007+22%3A55%3A48+GMT -damon -- http://twitter.com/damon
