250 might have been a very reasonable limit given contemporaneous
projections regarding likely use of the method. But every feature exposed by
the API will end up being used in unpredictable ways.  6 months ago, I used

site for a community built using twitter as a foundation.

You guys gave birth and raised a *great* system and environment, and life
has grown therein.
