This looks like a really great project. I'm wondering if there is some
way to return the location information (assuming the user provides it)
and/or geocode information (assuming mobile users have activated it).

I really appreciate the feedback!

Ok. Well, I was incorrect again. It appears that the location field
(not geo) isn't included in this code. (only geo code information) Is
there a simple way that I could display the content in the location
part of the stream?

(I'm sorry for my confusion).

Bob,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I totally missed the
series of posts in my email.

Are you trying to get the location from the user's profile (bio)?

If so, it does cause somewhat of an issue (oppty?). yourTwapperKeeper
uses both the streaming api and search api. the streaming api does
carry that information, but it is basically dumped and never stored.
the search api doesn't carry it (unless another api call is made)
[unless something has changed since the last time I looked.]

so to fully enable it, both archiving routines would have to be
refactored...

John
