Hi John, et al. I have been playing with the /follow streams and noticed that some users' updates don't appear at all. This was really confounding for quite a while. Then I noticed that using the search API to search for "from:user" returned no recent results.
An example is @KimSherrell. I have been trying to get her updates in the /follow stream (she posts *a lot*) as a way to verify that it is working. Lo and behold her most recent entry in the Search API is from 5 days ago: http://search.twitter.com/search?q=from:kimsherrell I know there is some administrative bit on the accounts that determines whether a user will be indexed by Search; is this same bit used to determine whether their updates will go out on the Hosebird streams? If so, may I ask why? Thanks! -Chad
