Re: [twitter-dev] historic trend data 10 days old

2010-11-22 Thread Taylor Singletary
Hi James,

You'll find that, in most cases, the data available for a trend is limited
by the amount of data provided by the Search API. While this goes back
around 10 days currently, there have been times when less was available.
Some day we hope to provide more historical data.

 I'm trying to dig out some hourly trend data from the Twitter API

 for, but I'm not able to go back in time more than ~10 days.

 Is there any way that I'm able to grab the hourly trend data given a
 date  10 days from the API?

 Thanks in advance,

 James

Taylor, there has been much talk lately about the new Twitter
Analytics tool that would deliver historical data. Am I correct in
assuming that this is built on an internal API, and that this API will
be surfaced eventually for use by us developers?

I can't really speak much on the topic of the analytics tool. I can say that
you'll find most everything in Twitter is focused on real-time -- whether
it's search results, the tweets available for a given user timeline, or the
general structure and emphasis presented by our UI. There's not much on
Twitter that allows one to dwell on the past.

Yes, but advertisers and sales people are obsessed with the past, and
they provide the dollars that will make Twitter grow. We'll see where
this leads Twitter. I bet they follow the money. Google did, and it
worked out OK. :)

Re: [twitter-dev] historic trend data 10 days old

2010-11-22 Thread M. Edward (Ed) Borasky
I've seen a few hints of the analytics product and know a fair number  
of people who do that sort of thing for a living. I think they're  
*not* obsessed with the past at all - their wet dream is very much  
like what Wieden and Kennedy and a whole host of partners did this  
summer in real time with Old Spice.


That's the future of Twitter / social media / advertising: teams of  
creative, legal, copy writers, production and analytics people huddled  
around control panels, analytics dashboards, video studios, phone  
banks, etc. It's a bit like mission control for a shuttle launch -  
only if something goes wrong do people look at the past. And mobile /  
iPad / places is going to make it even more real-time.
