I didn't see any of these on the FAQ:
% It's probably easy to create a twitter-to-email bidirectional
gateway. Has someone already done this?
% Twitter pushes DMs to my email address, which is cool, especially
since I can pipe the email to whatever I want. Can I force Twitter to

Twitter provides a list of the top 10 trending topics, but this seems
minimal. Does someone maintain a larger list?
An obvious way to do this: track 1000s of tags (+ let anyone add more)
and count the number of tag appearances in the last 15m, hour, two

http://search.twitter.com/search.json?geocode=90,0,2500km
gives me tweets from twits living w/in 2500km of the North Pole, but
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?geocode=90,0,2501km
gives me bupkis. Is this limit documented anywhere?

Can I find a tweet knowing only its id?
Everyone I've asked seems to think yes, but even the URLs are of the form:
http://twitter.com/[username]/statuses/[id]

I also didn't see an API call that gave you tweet content based on id.

Has anyone written a VT100 twitter client or emacs twitter mode or similar?
Twitter is such a beautifully light protocol, graphics seem unnecessary.
I know (and have written) a command-line interface, but am looking for
something 1 step up (eg, pine::mail, emacs::ex, elinks::curl sort of
thing)
I've heard a lot about Hummingbird, a commercial program
(http://twitaddict.com/hummingbird/) that helps you gain twitter
followers.
Is there a free/open source equivalent?
I've written something similar myself (obtain public timeline, follow
everyone you've never followed before, find their
Since you can search multiple hashtags w/ a single query (using OR) it
seems fairly easy to follow a large number of hashtags.
Has anyone created Mailman lists for these? EG, someone subscribed to
a...@mailman.twitter.com would get email w/ all tweets that have #api
in them.
This doesn't seem
I know /rate_limit_status.json tells me how many API calls I have
left, but what tells me how many tweets I have left?
I once had lots of API calls left, but when I tweeted foo (via the API),
the tweet didn't go through and I kept getting back data on my last
successful tweet (ie, the one

APRS (aprs.net) is a system ham radio operators use to broadcast short
text messages (sound familiar?), usually about their current position,
current weather, etc.
If you telnet rotate.aprs.net 10152 and enter user READONLY pass -1,
