birding: public API twitter search stream

Overview

birding is an open source project to produce a stream of recent twitter activity based on a sequence of search terms, using only twitter’s public APIs. It serves as both a standalone project and a demo of distributed real-time computing with Python using Storm/streamparse and Kafka/pykafka.

Dependencies are fully automated; in a birding checkout, run with:

make run

See the docs (below) for a full discussion of birding, including how to use birding in an existing streamparse project.
