Hey guys

We're integrating Twitter into our project, and after looking into
whitelisting, it looks like the max calls an hour is 20,000.  While
that MIGHT be enough for us, we're worried that we will come to close
to that number during initial launch of our product.

Is there a contact number out there where I can call Twitter and talk
to them directly? It seems almost impossible to find something for
them.

I'd love to boost the 20,000 to maybe 30,000 if possible.  Anyone 
have

any thoughts?


I can't help you with the business negotiations with Twitter, but is it 
possible your application could use the Streaming API for high-frequency 
access to Twitter? Between User Streams (desktops) and Site Streams 
(multi-user subscription servers) it's possible to do almost anything 
you can do with the other APIs.
