Twitter Raises API Limit
Great news for Twitter developers!
Twitter had mentioned that this was in the works, but so far I haven't heard mention of them actually launching this upgrade. I hope it is here to stay!
They have also recently fixed a long-standing bug that caused followers/following methods to report incorrect data. Along with this fix came some new API methods for managing follow relationships - I will be updating iTweet with a new follow/unfollow UI just as soon as I can get to it!
There are some really great improvements coming soon to iTweet.net - stay tuned for much much more.

I enjoy your excellent Twitter API client iTweet 2 on the web. I pray you make a stripped-down version for “dump-phones”. It’ll be great to have a version that works similar to m.tweete.net and dabr.co.uk
Thanks.

Yes, they raised it up to 150.
Did you know? You can reach a max of 20,000 hits per hour after submitting a white list request. This takes about 2 hours and should be submitted for account AND Server IP. Unfortunately the “remaining hits” API seems to be broken in the last few weeks. I usually get a count of around 19,900 free hits (much too high).
