my goal is to plott the long and lat of posts on twitter in real time,
i have got this working but it seems to be very slow.
im using the stream api to do this
im justing pulling off the json quiry the post and the geocode, when i
just pull the post without the geocode it runs like a dream, very
how do you get tweets from all over? I thought they were limited to up
to 1000 mile radius?
can you give a summary of your goal. It seems like doing it real time
would be impossible (if you want to capture every tweet around the
world)
I am working on a geo mashup with tweets and google maps
Any standard Twitter API is rate-limited except Streaming API
(Firehost). However Streaming API must be approved by Twitter
manually.
If radius cap is 100 miles, it should cover most metropolitan area
size. In some areas you may not get enough tweets for 200 miles
diameter to show sufficient
