Naive/obvious questions:

Have you

a) done everything listed at https://dev.twitter.com/docs/streaming-apis/streams/site#App... ?

b) considered getting on a plane to SF, spending a few weeks there, and network like hell, in an attempt to meet face-to-face with someone at Twitter? You said you're desperate, so all options are on the table, though I suspect I'll get shot down for suggesting this.

View on HN

a) yes, everything b) this is on my list of 'if all else fails' but as you know, networking is a bit like dating. it's a whole lot easier if you're not desperate ;)

You should absolutely be on a plane to SF. As you said yourself, this is your shot. Don't blow it by sitting at home wishing people would fly out to meet you.

100% agree. Fly to SF, knock down every door, connect with every twitter employee possible on Linkedin, and find out who you need to talk to.
