Hi Glenn,
Sounds like a good idea. It would be nice to have some sort of
monitoring on the API. It would make it easier to determine where
something is going wrong.
Someone just mentioned http://api-status.com/ which seems to go into
the direction you propose, even for several APIs.

John,

oAuth is a big burden for microcontroller based devices like this -
OAuthcalypse will probably simply kill this app. It seems like way
too much overhead to push oAuth code into this little chip. oAuth
alone would probably exceed all the rest of the application code on
the device combined.

Twitter does not handle classic retweets any different from standard tweets.
They have no representation of being a retweet other then containing the
originators name and showing up as a mention. As such they will not show up
in any of the retweet API methods unless someone natively retweets them.
Does that mean if @account has a whitelisted app, 5000 messages/day
can be sent through that app, but each app user (say @user_of_account)
only gets 250/day?
If so, is the 100 DM/hour limit the same for both @account and
