For no good reason, I'm on twitter. I hear its compelling... somehow.

I also have a blog.

You're probably hitting some XSS blocks.

comment API methods that return a single Item by id: unnecessary parameters to remove?
@systempuntoout - fromdate and todate restrict the returned objects by creation date. The docs are wrong for the moment, nice catch.

comment Can we not limit requests based on the first one?
By the time your development is serious enough to go through 300 requests in a day you should be using a key on all requests. Its only a hindrance in the first 24 hours if you do so.

comment When does a rate-limit day start and end?
This is correct; an IP will receive (upon the next request) a new request quota 24 hours after the previous quota was issued.

comment Keep getting HTTP 406
@lfount you and Franci should try again. The API will still respond with gzip'd (or deflate'd) content, but it won't throw a 406 back if a proxy strips it out along the way. Let me know if that solves your problem, as I'm afraid the "on SO at work" scenario may be pretty common...
