[twitter-dev] Getting any users home timeline

[dp]

So the statuses/friends_timeline api call gives an authentated users
and his friends statuses. Basically that authentacted users home
page.

Now is there any similar way to get any users home timeline.  statuses/
user_timeline gives the statuses for any user specified by a userid.
But it gives what is posted by them only.

An e.g to clear things up

User X is authenticated through API.
the App makes a call and gets his home timeline using statuses/
friends_timeline .

User X has a friend User Y.  App can call statuses/user_timeline  for
user Y but that will return only User Ys statutes (which can also be
got from statuses/friends_timeline  earlier).

What i want is an easy way so the the App can get User Y;s home time-
line ( User Ys statuses as well User Y friends statuses).

One can find User Ys friends and then call statuses/user_timeline for
each of friend to get what i want. Seems to expensive in terms of api
calls

Any better way of doing this? i could not see the api supporting this
directly.

[twitter-dev] Re: Pagination limit for REST API(3200)

Hi Doug,

I did read that but was not able to get the exact implications of it,
thats why the question.

So lets say i use count to get 3200 messages in history for a user,
then can i use the count ever again (count 20), or i have reached the
limit for that user permanently??

  Does this limit reset?
