[twitter-dev] API response w/ IP
Is there a way to get the API to respond back with the IP address hitting it from the call? I'm running into a problem where something is eating away at my API hits / hour. I've put a simple script on a few isolated domains (non- Twitter calling ones) that are also having their API hits eaten up.

Re: [twitter-dev] API response w/ IP
Depends how they're routing the outbound traffic. You'll need to bind your calls to that IP. If its PHP and you're using CURL, I believe its CURLOPT_INTERFACE.

The application I want to develop would reply to every @mention.

I have rudimentary Ruby, Python and JavaScript skills and I know someone who is quite proficient at programming who will help me. The application I have in mind would be a service that any one could use and I don't intend to develop this for profit.

[twitter-dev] Re: Which API to use / getting started question
Users of my app will be able to indicate that they want any of their tweets with hashtags to appear on my site as messages posted from that user. So, if I were a user who had selected this option and tweeted I like #foo, this site would see that tweet and add the same message to their site. This is essentially so that people don't have to actually directly use my app to use it. Instead, they just tweet stuff and my app picks it up (so long as it has a hash tag).
