Part of the reason that upgrading Tweepy didn't help the Search API problem is that I was linked to the WRONG version of Tweepy. :[
Now all the APIs need OAuth credentials. Boo. Let's store those in the config.
The "UploadHandler" now handles uploading JSON data into the datastore for local development.
Gotta setup OAuth authentication for the API now, and the objects returned by the Search API are different. Now they're just Status instances, like the timeline.
