Again, YQL to rescue:
select * from github.user.info where id in (select users from json where url
= 'http://github.com/api/v2/json/user/show/davglass/following')

Permalink:
http://developer.yahoo.com/yql/console/?q=select%20*%20from%20github.user.info%20where%20id%20in%20(select%20users%20from%20json%20where%20url%20%3D%20'http://github.com/api/v2/json/user/show/davglass/following')&env=store://datatables.org/alltableswithkeys

YQL will give you a "cache" and the ability to let Yahoo's servers do all
the processing. So you can bang on them pretty goos without banging on
GitHub's API.

It's fast & free, so give it a shot.

I burn tons of API calls on yuilibrary.com and they all go through YQL for
the speed/cache and multi-requests ;)
