I've reviewed a number of twitter userscripts and this one looks the most decent of them all.

Good code quality, reasonable file size (taking the number of features in consideration), love the "friends cache" bit. Was thinking of implementing something similar myself, but I'm worried will it exceed cookie limit for certain users.

Only why did you use the Atom API for search.twitter.com instead of JSON?

Unfortunately twitter limits you to a 100 requests, regardless of how many tweets you get from each request. I would love to use JSON, but 100 requests is too low. Think.. ~10 tweet replies per page, your looking at exhausting that in 10 pages.

Oops, I see what your saying... good question. I should revisit that!
