Ok also I am actually not authenticating the user. I am using "http:// twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/bob.json" to obtain the user's last 20 tweets.
My app is only making this single api call. Still, I don't think I am being allowed 70 api calls per hour. If I make a different api call, say for a different user, such as "http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/ahujaankit.json"; Would that also count in the 70 that are allowed?
