Seems like you are hitting the follower limit. Twitter regulates the number of people you can follow based on your follower/following ratio. Try using another account and see if the issue persists. On Tue, Aug 4, 2009 at 8:01 AM, Dan Kurszewski dan.kurszew...@gmail.comwrote: This is Basic

I had this idea at lunch today and figured I'd share it :) Right now Twitter will shorten URLs by default and use bit.ly. However, when you receive the content via the API (stream, search, etc) you then have to expand the URL by doing a HTTP GET against the bit.ly servers which causes them load

I don't believe the consumer token/secret is linked to an ip address. I don't remember supplying it during application registration so twitter doesn't really know my ip anyway. I'm guessing the access tokens are linked to the IP address which they where issued. This would help prevent access token

My guess is twitter has a limit on the number of friendship create/destroy calls you can make with a certain period of time. This would prevent bots or such from overloading twitter with too many requests. The fact that you start getting 403 after a while helps confirm there is a limit blocking
