[twitter-dev] Re: Find posts from a certain app
Part of DataSift's plan is to include analytics, so you may find that when we've implemented this feature that source will be part of that. Do keep an eye out for updates to DataSift and if you haven't already seen there's a great opportunity for UK devs to get funding for application ideas that use DataSift.

Something that you might find interesting as a developer is this recent announcement from DataSift: Funding for DataSift Developers: http://bit.ly/hOYpNh And DataSift to Twitter open source code: http://bit.ly/gDo2wA Enjoy!

[twitter-dev] Re: Search API and location
Hi Tom, DataSift is still in closed Alpha but we have enabled a large number of users within the Alpha to date and will add additional users for the Beta so if you'd like early access it's well worth signing up on http://datasift.net and you may find you get in before we launch the consumer release version.
