A number of "chat" groups have grown up around Twitter. One of the big requirements for these groups is to produce a transcript for each chat session.
While the content is free, there is a cost associated with the collection of tweets and generation of the transcripts for each group. Many chat groups collect the tweets into a transcript, generate a PDF (or similar document), and post the transcripts to a common member website. 1) The Twitter TOS appears to allow the creation of chat transcripts using the API. 2) What does the TOS say about charging money for the transcripts? Would that be forbidden under Twitter's API terms (resale of tweets)? Or is it possible to sell a transcript based on the labor/technology costs involved in generating the transcript? -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: https://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: https://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: https://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/twitter-development-talk
