Welcome to the first posting on Guerrilla Feed's new blog. I promise to take in your requests and post articles that you are looking for and make it a worthwhile experience not just on Guerrilla Feed, but on this blog as well. Now...on to Twitter's API....
The Twitter API looks interesting. A lot of flexibility in terms of integration with two or more site it seems. My only qualm is the apparent limitation on the number of requests to their API. According to Mashable, the Twitter API limits people who are on the whitelist to 20,000 requests per hour. If we are talking about true integration, it seems to me that their is still room for improvement in terms of total freedom and access a website or application can have with Twitter. Bear in mind this article from Mashable was written back in January of this year but based on my research so far, this has not changed.
Twitter's API page however, offer's an olive branch to developers who like to push the envelope and to reach out to Twitter if you are looking for more requests per hour than what is already offered. If you are looking for more information on the Twitter API, I highly recommend reading Twitter API: Up and Running - Learn How to Build Applications with the Twitter API.
