There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the “My feedback” filter and select “My open ideas”.

                          • let developers add APIs, too.

                            I'm a mashup developer, but also have a couple APIs, too. How can I add/link the APIs to my profile?

                                          Twitter will release very soon a new API called trends/location that will allow us to track twitter trends based on geolocation. For more information about this API : http://apiwiki.twitter.com/Twitter-REST-API-Method%3A-trends-location I just launched a new Twitter Trends Google Map Mashup at http://geotwittrends.com/
