Here are some of the questions we're often asked about Twitterfall.
We show every tweet that Twitter returns for a given search, there is no filtering or blocking of users done by us. Check to see if your tweets show up on twitter.com and if they don't then you should contact Twitter.
This is usually due to a problem with Twitter. If you can't log in to Twitterfall for an extended period of time then contact us.
You might have too many searches which causes Twitterfall to throttle requests to Twitter. At most, Twitterfall will check for new tweets every 15 seconds.
