[twitter-dev] Twitter rate limiting restricting my implementation

2010-12-02 Thread computerzworld
Hello,
   I am implementing an application which will download users'
friends  followers as csv so that they can have backup of their data
but when I am making the API call, users API call limit is getting to
zero as that user is having more than 100 friends and followers and
limit of 350 is getting over in one shot. I am making two API calls at
a time. One is friends/ids for retrieving friends' ids and form that I
am fetching users details via users/show. Is there any other way in
which I can be able to retrieve the list using streaming API or
something else or increasing my limit? Also users/show function is
retrieving data very much slow. I am getting stuck at this point.
Please help me. Thank you.

Hello. You may try to get your app whitelisted to bump up the limits:
