I'd support the creation of such a method. My latest focus is receiving orders/commands through DM and having a hose would give us a much snappier response than polling every 30 secs.

Random idea, but wouldn't a streaming API for DMs allow IM style clients to be implemented on top of the twitter platform? I know I use DMs instead of MSN now, the delay is a bit of a pain but being able to move the conversation from public to private is great, plus sometimes you do want delayed IM conversations (for example, when travelling) ;) Thanks, @Ben_Hall On Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 2:55 AM, Doug Williamsd...@twitter.com wrote: There is currently no Streaming API to receive DMs for a given user.

Hi Doug, I want to be able to offer push notifications on iPhone for public replies (that is done with the streaming API, as you can see on http://www.twitvid.com/A4E43 ). I would also like to offer it for DM. You do send a mail but a push is way faster than emails. Basicly if you had push for DM you could really replace text messages with twitter. Is that a good justification? Can I help in any ways?
