Why does stuff made with twitter api not work for me?
I cannot receive updates on any twitter app. The site works fine for me, but I cannot get anything on twhirl, spaz, snitter, and now digsby. this is over a few weeks. I've now uninstalled adobe air, and digsby is the only twitter app installed. I don't know why its blocking me
I’m frustrated

Inappropriate?The Twitter API currently allows 70 authenticated requests per user per hour. If you've exceeded that limit, then you won't be able to access your account via any third-party application until the hour is up..
If there's an application that's accessing your account via the API (e.g., Netvibes Widget) that you're not aware of, changing your Twitter password will usually be sufficient to fix the problem.
Having said all that, there is an ongoing discussion in a separate thread where people seem to be hitting their api limit even if they've not been using Twitter for over an hour. It might help to add your voice there. -
Inappropriate?is there any update on this, the problem appears to be getting worse -
Inappropriate?The API rate limit was reduced to 30 requests per user per hour last week when Twitter was having trouble keeping up with the load. That may explain why the problem seems worse.
They post updates on their efforts to restore full service at http://status.twitter.com -
Inappropriate?I had reduced it to 30 a week ago, today after the outage I reduced it to 20 and then 10 and still could not connect, the status page is nice, I also use the www.istwitterdown.com site to show if twitter is ok
