Twitter wants to become your online identity | News | TechRadar UK [del.icio.us]

No limit on tweets To help that happen, Twitter plans to drop the current limit on the number of tweets an application can send or request and only block apps that appear to be sending spam or abusing the site. There are also improvements to the search tools developers can use in their apps. The plan isn't to make money from Twitter developers the way Apple does with the iPhone app store, Payne says. "On a number of services we've watched developers get started and then have the rug pulled from under them. They need to know 'Is it OK to build a business on this, is it OK to retain this data?'. We're not interested in charging for any of these developer features any time soon but we do want to make it very clear what we're going to be providing and what you can expect from Twitter."
