Another 2-for-1 error day

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Happened when checking someone's followers the other day, soon after Twitter updated their new mobile site at http://mobile.twitter.com (only looks different from twitter.com on mobile devices natch.)

Here is your error of day. Currently trying out COtweet and what do you know, the search is erroring. What a lot of good that does me.  To be fair, it could be chalked up to Twitter's API or something, but now I'm wading into something I don't ...
