A couple months ago I submitted a HTML5 canvas-based Twitter app to the 10K Apart competition. Unfortunately I didn't win – I didn't even come close – but I had fun working on it and I learnt a lot while doing so (the Google balls code came from it!). Now the competition is closed I finally got around to releasing the source code on GitHub. Play around with it to your heart's content, just please attribute me if you use it, like John O'Nolan. ;)
In case 10K Apart remove this year's entries I'm now hosting the app on Rawkes, so check it out and let me know what you think.

I know this is an old post but we’re looking to build something similar in the future and your code is a really helpful resource. One question though, did you choose to use “statuses/friends” because of the 10k limit of because of any problems that I may not know about before I go any further?

@Vaughan: I chose “statuses/friends” purely because it seemed to be the best part of the API to use at the time (this project is quite old). There might be a better way to do it today but the decision wasn’t down to the 10k limit.
