twitter

Love: It is a great way to just send short little bursts of information to friends.

Hate: If you are not aware or only use the website to interface with twitter, they have an API that any third-party application works with. To prevent scaling issues and over use and such, they impose a limit to the requests that an account can make per hour. This limit fluctuates but is generally around 100 per hour. However, for some unknown reason, my account thinks it has ALWAYS used up all of its requests so I can’t ever use third-party twitter clients or anything that access my twitter (like the widget on the right).

UPDATE: As soon as I posted this, it started working again! I love twitter now!
