I am going to try both. thanks, abraham and Raffi. additionally, could you guys help me consider such case? in my app, I need to fetch the tweets from about 400+ accounts to fullfill the table in the firstly launch( it's an iphone app actually). how to avoid blacklisted by server for the suddenly flood of api call? the user_timeline should fit my requirements but I am still a little concern about the performance and server's reaction even if I cache server response. BR, Zhu
