Twitter API: What is the fastest way to receive a tweet?

  • Is there any way to ensure that you receive a tweet from someone as soon as they tweet it, and if so how? (i.e. how to avoid the lag of API calls and queues..)

  • Answer:

    The Streaming API, which includes User Streams, is the fastest way to get a new Tweet. Many desktop clients support User Streams, and tweets and messages are typically delivered in well under a second.
