Hi, not sure if the Twitter API people are reading in here, but let's give it a try.
I was wondering if you'd consider having an API call that's only returning the last N status ids for your tweets/DM's/etc. a bit like the extremely useful social graph calls friends/ids and followers/ids. I'm using a local tweet cache in Gravity (S60 Twitter client) and I found it to be difficult to catch up with tweets/DM's that are deleted by the user outside of the client's scope (web, other clients, etc.) Maybe there's an easy way to get around without "ids/tweets? n=cachesizeN" or "ids/direct_messages?n=cachesizeN" like calls!? I'm trying to keep the traffic for the user low, so just fetching new tweets with the "since_id" always set. This way, it's impossible to synchronize the account of course. Let me know what you think of this or if I'm just too stupid to get this done in another way. Cheers Ole @ mobileways.de
