[twitter-dev] A feed greater equivalent to the old gardenhose?

2010-07-16 Thread Sanjay
Just saw the posting about the reduction in the gardenhose (and
sprtizer) feeds ( http://t.co/d6o1npx ).  So for those of us who need
the additional data and are designed around it (and can consume it),
is there a way to get that level of feed back?  For me in particular
this is going to significantly hamper the app that I'm working on and
was looking to launch in a few weeks.

Help...?

You can request greater levels of Streaming access by sending a message to
a...@twitter.com from the email address associated with your Twitter account.
It's best to describe in detail how you'll use the data (sampling, keyword
tracking, geo, and the number of variables and rates you're looking to
employ), as well as the benefits it brings to users and background
information about your organization and products.

Thanks,
Taylor

In addition to the note from Taylor, I think it's a good idea to remind people 
that stream contents are identical - it's absolutely no use and a waste of 
resources to consume more than one sample stream. Just pick the largest one - 
that will contain all messages you can get.
