Added support for Flickr2Twitter / flic.kr image links. Still working on search support (takes forever because I need to make a total of 3 HTTP calls (one to Twitter, one to Unshorten the URL, and another to Flickr to get the links, phew)
Fixed a nasty bug where search results were using the Twitter User ID instead of Twitter username
Tuned the DB pool and HTTP threads to handle a much larger load in the wake of today’s U2 deluge.
