Hi, In November I requested (from account @BreakingNews) to whitelist IP 208.74.120.146 so we no longer have rate limits. That IP belongs to www.bnonews.com. Until now we stayed well below the rate limit, but now we seem to go above it. We are using a number of scripts which check Twitter RSS feeds for updates, and immediately send it to an e- mail address. Every hour, between --.05 and --.30 of the hour (estimate) it will stop work. It started only after we added several more accounts for it to check. Did something go wrong and is the IP still having a limit?
Thanks. This is the e-mail I received in November: Hi BNO News, Thanks for requesting to be on Twitter's API whitelist. We've approved your request! You should find any rate limits no longer apply to authenticated requests made by @BreakingNews. We've also whitelisted the following IP addresses: 208.74.120.146 This change should take effect within the next 48 hours. The Twitter API Team
