Hey Ryan, The link that Matt Harris pointed to states: "...parameters such as max_id and since_id will work as expected...things like counting Tweets by subtracting status IDs will not be possible."
So, on the one hand it seems like you'll be able to continue without modification ... but on the other hand, it seems like you will have to modify your methods - specifically, the "minus one to stop the same tweet appearing" part. I'm guessing that you'll have to slightly modify your code to not use a 'less one' approach, but hopefully someone else can give you a more solid answer. -Jim On Oct 12, 4:51 am, artesea <ryancul...@gmail.com> wrote: > Quick question, for the timeline I've been using max_id=123456789 as a > method of paging backwards instead of page=2.
