Hi all,

I am interested in using the Twitter API on one of my website - the coding isn't the problem, but it seems Bluehost blocks Twitter? (Or is Twitter blocking Bluehost?)

I am on a shared IP, and anything I run (wget, my own python script, telnet to Twitter.com/port 80) seems to be blocked.

Anyone run into this problem as well?

Thanks!

Hey there,

Twitter was blocking two of our IP ranges for a while there. We have managed to have them release the block and all normal Twitter api calls should be making it through now.
