@John thanks a lot. 2 things :
1. Requests are still timing out though at a lesser rate, I guess this
should die down in some time?
2. Can we prevent this from happening? I know apps from GAE end up
misusing the API and your algo blocks the IP. But, won't you be able
to whitelist the good apps?
The way that Google App Engine handles outbound connections is that many
applications share and reuse outbound IPs from a proxy pool. This makes rate
limiting much harder and determination of where abuse is sourcing from
difficult to determine.
The request timing out issue you're experiencing
@John Thanks a lot for having a second look :) I'm still getting
timeouts.
I understand it's difficult for you guys to determine the rogue apps.
But, won't you be able to like put a check where calls that have the

If you save those four keys, you should have everything you need to
restore the session.
If this does not work for you, make sure that you save the keys
properly. For example, you don't want to confuse oauth_token with
oauth_consumer_key.

You can store them in a session/cookie, or simply ask them once they
return. A good way to identify the session/cookie would be to use the
temporary token which Twitter gives you on request_token.
