Shows the nearest tweets to a particular Longitude/Latitude coordinate
== Twitter Geolocation Demo
This application demonstrates streaming twitter statuses into a mongodb capped collection in order
to view the top 50 tweets nearest a particular latitude/longitude coordinate.
Install and start mongodb: http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Quickstart+OS+X
In order to start streaming the data, use:
rake twitter:stream CREDENTIALS=twitter_username,twitter_password
You must have set up your twitter account per the streaming API documents.
To run tests, just run: rspec spec. It is not necessary to rake test:db:prepare.
To use, enter Latitude and Longitude coordinates and click search. You can click on both map markers and
screen name links to open a window showing the corresponding tweet on the map.
