Hi there,
There is a since:YYYY-MM-DD operator but unfortunately the
operators are documented on a different page [1]. Another historical
thing, I'll try and find some time to move that stuff over to the API
doc [2]. The reason for your error is that the since: date you
provided is older than the data currently available. We plan to
improve the error messaging when we merge the search and main APIs, so
hopefully things will be clearer after that.
We try to keep as much search data on hand as we can but we're
currently limited on disk space. As the rate of tweets increases we
need more and more disk to keep old data on hand. We've ordered more
disks and await them eagerly. Once those are installed the date range
for searches can start growing again. Sorry for the confusing error
messaging.
Thanks;

Actualy the url is
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=offer+OR+book+OR+read+since%3A2009-01-01+from%3Anyankov
and what I found is that if I change the query to:
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=offer+OR+book+OR+read+since%3A2009-04-01+from%3Anyankov
everything is ok since is I try to search for:
http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=offer+OR+book+OR+read+since%3A2009-01-01+from%3Anyankov
It displays:
The page you were looking for doesn't exist.
You may have mistyped the address or the page may have moved.
The only difference in both is since date
Any ideas?
