Why does twitter's API return garbage (sometim

Question

If you look there and hit F5 (one each second, 10 times maximally), you'll see that few responses

• don't have jsonp callback
• don't have search response

Is that problem on my side (that URL) or is that just Twitter API's fault?

Answer 1

This is definitely twitter's fault, even the official link often returns plain instead of padded JSON.
