HI calyps, Good questions. Yes, the search API only returns results from the last 6 or 7 days. To be exact, I believe it returns results since a certain id, so the time window will continue to decrease as the number of tweets per day grows. To get your own tweets, you'll want to hit the "statuses

I'm thinking that because techwatching and techwatching_cl post similar content (with different links) that may be why they've been blacklisted - taken together, do they look like a spam attack? One part of the answer may be to shutter one of them, and just have a single account.
