Hi all,
I'm fairly new to app development and am working with Google Appengine
at the moment. My app (http://www.twitwheel.com/) makes two calls to
the search API for each page view. I've just added the user agent to
my urlfetch calls. Do I still need to worry about the 100/hour rate
limit? I've only just started testing and am open to alternatives and
suggestions.
thanks!
