Thanks John, this means that my app won't work anymore! streaming api makes my life very hard hence i need to search for links and then extract them, this is very resource demanding to do on the fly while with search API i can search then extract and then search again i could use queue system but then again i will lose all the real time fun will there be a filter in the search api for retweets like there is for links? that could solve all my problems
