Re: [twitter-dev] search "randomly" limits result set

[M. Edward (Ed) Borasky]

I sometimes do a search back in time for all the tweets from Portland,  
Oregon. What I've found is that there seems to be a limit on the total  
number of tweets I can get that is independent of time. The last time  
I ran this, IIRC it returned about 30000 tweets. So I suspect the  
answer is "30000 tweets or as far back as the index exists, whichever  
is smaller."
