Trends URL responding with 403-Forbidden

[nattu]

Hi,

I am following the posts on Twitter API announcements and found these
posts in the last couple of weeks.
http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-api-announce/browse_thread/thread/6f734611ac57e281
http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-api-announce/browse_thread/thread/5fea0e52ae19c1eb#

The trends URL api.twitter.com/1/trends does not seem to work and
returns 403-Forbidden error. However the older URL search.twitter.com/
trends works fine.

For e.g.,
http://api.twitter.com/1/trends/weekly.json
http://search.twitter.com/trends/weekly.json

The former does not work, but the latter works just fine. So if I
switch to the latter as mentioned in the posts, my App features won't
work because of this. Any idea why it is so?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Nataraj

Hi Nattu,

Trends are down at the moment for maintenance -- see http://status.twitter.com and http://twitter.com/twitterapi for updates -- we should have Trends turned back on today.
