Hi Alex and the rest of the Twitter Support Team, By now you might have seen the stream of tweets, messages and everything in my power to try and get a hold of you. We launched our startup today, Twollars.com - which is a virtual thank you currency for Twitter with as goal to support charities and encourage good behavior. Not realizing that there were API limits on the search and public user/show/usernameorid.json - we launched, had one bad loop and twollars.com got blocked, understandably. We then switched over everything to omniwiki.co.uk (proxy wise) but quickly ran into the 100 requests per hour rate limit; and believe we might be blocked now? As you can understand we're sweating here and stress levels building, no startup wants to go south on the day of launch ;)
Is it possible you can whitelist omniwiki.co.uk and twollars.com - we'd also be happy to discuss a paid api structure if Twitter prefers that. All the best, Eiso
