Without any fanfare, Twitter raised it’s API limit from 100 to 150. This means that you can now get more calls per hour …. i.e, more tweets, replies & DMs.

So if you’re using an application like TweetDeck, you may notice in the upper right corner it will now say, for example:

Remaining API for account TraciKnoppe: 130/150 …

This is great news! Hopefully this is a sign of better things to come and the limit will be greatly increased in the near future, or lifted altogether…but we’ll take what we can get. Thanks Twitter!
