Bringing rate limits back to normal
Alex Payne
just now raised the limit to 40 per hour and things are holding
steady. If all continues to go well, we should be back to 70 today or
tomorrow. We'll try to keep it there barring special events that are
announced ahead of time.

You've just put your foot in it Alex :-)

requests per hour to 100. We're still testing whether this rate works
for us, but so far so good. We'll make a formal announcement once we
know we can stick with it. At the very least, we won't be going back
below 70.
This improvement is largely due to the work of Evan Weaver, a fairly
recent addition to the Twitter team who you may have seen helping out
around this group. He's awesome. If you like having 100 requests per
hour, send him ponies.

SQUEE! ^5, Evan! :-)
Now, if the friends/followers API data could just return correctly for
users so Twitter Karma can work right again ... all would be right in
the world! :-)

would've been fine with 50 requests, but 100? Wowzers. Unexpected, and
amazing.

Thanks to both Evan Weaver and Alex Payne, you both deserve much applause.
Maybe you should update the status.twitter.com page though - it still
seems to think you're limited to 20 an hour... whoops!

we're committed to a particular rate per hour number. We want to keep
you guys up to date, but it's not worth bugging users about until it's
more concrete.

You may have noticed that the pagination is back for the
friends_timeline, too. You are also allowed to specify 'count' for
friends_timeline and user_timeline. Please observe, however, the
suggestions in the section "be nice to the servers".
Incidentally, I live in Delaware, so if you send beer to Twitter HQ, I
won't get it...
