- aviel 18y agoI definitely plan on switching to gnip. As i said, tweetweather is just something I put together after work the past week, grabbing from the search api was the quick and easy solution to getting tweets into the system. Gnip rocks.
- ryanwaggoner 18y agoCan you explain how you'd use Gnip in this instance? From reading the API docs, it doesn't sound like you can do anything with Gnip + Twitter other than get tweets from / to a particular Twitter user. So you can't get keyword-filtered results from the public timeline, I don't think. Am I missing it?
- aviel 18y agoYou're 100% correct. But I'm hoping they'll add the ability to use filters on the whole firehose in the near future.
