It's a possibility, but by no means a probability. Note that you can mitigate
this by using the newest tweet that is outside your danger zone. For example
in a sequence of tweets t1, t2 ... ti ... tn with creation

Just out of curiosity, what applications are you building that require
sub-second sorting resolution for tweets?

So, I guess for the since_id issue, it boils down to this question:
Regarding the since_id parameter, when you (Twitter) flip the switch
on the new ID format, will I (as a developer) have to change any of my

I hope you're right, but my app design depends on since_id, and before I

Hi Taylor (et al.),
There are two reasons to think that, with the scheme you propose,
tweet ids will not necessarily be monotonically increasing.
Naveen hit the first:
