I don't think it's a silly question, just that no one knows except twitter. +1 for an answer from the twitter team is possible, because it's easier to parse and react to '39' than the equivalent strings. Anyone ? Bueller, Bueller, Bueller ? :-) On 26 May 2011, at 08:57, Maomor wrote: > I gu

You appear to be using the wrong URLs. Specify a version number and this will go away. Rather than "http://api.twitter.com/account/rate_limit_status.json"; use "http://api.twitter.com/account/1/rate_limit_status.json"; On 12 Apr 2011, at 16:06, impeto wrote: > :) Ok, "authenticated" mea
