I'm intrigued - has anyone else been given Site Streams access in the last month? We signed the Terms of Service over a month ago and have heard nothing since, despite asking here, via email and via @SiteStreams I'm interested to know whether all applications have been frozen or whether it's just

It seems a little confusing that you're basically saying "don't build any more Twitter clients" and then call out the likes of Hoot Suite and Seesmic as being examples of what people should be doing. At heart they're just Twitter clients (that we shouldn't build any more?) They also appear to be

Is it fair to say that both geo and coordinates have effectively been replaced by place? Or is there circumstances when you would still use coordinates over place? In other words - if I were building a brand new client from scratch would I pay any attention to geo or coordinates, or only concern
