Hi Guys,

Great API. I already got the first version running. Is it possible to
replace <guid> parameter with lat, lng? I see that it is possible with
Search API but don't see the same functionally with Twitter?

Replace this:
http://api.geoapi.com/v1/e/<guid>/view/twitter?apikey=demo&pretty=1

With this:
http://api.geoapi.com/v1/e/Lat,Lng/view/twitter?apikey=demo&pretty=1

Thanks

Andrei

Not sure if this is the right way to do it but the location can be
passed in Twitter search parameters:

http://api.geoapi.com/v1/e/denver-co/view/twitter:geocode=45,39,100km&rpp=100&q=?apikey=demo&pretty=1

That said, you still have to have <guid> parameter set. Is there any
other way?

Andrei,

If you just want to search for tweets near a lot/lon, you can use the
Twitter API directly: http://apiwiki.twitter.com/
