Feature request : Support 301 redirects on API endpoints

[dovy]

I want to love this library, but I have an API that I'm trying to extend a class for this. It SHOULD be working, but it's stuck in a 301 response and nothing continues. How can I get redirects to be handled? It looks like they're stuck...

I did not consider redirects when designing the library. Sorry about that!

Detecting and following redirects is probably not hard, since the http requests all happen in a single spot. If you have time to do it, send a pull request.

We're thinking of migrating to using requests instead of httplib in which case this will be a simple change.

Yea... Requests has a ton more power to it. I strongly suggest it.
