2010-11-20 Thread James Chivers
I'm trying to dig out some hourly trend data from the Twitter API using the trends/daily call with the associated date that I'm looking for, but I'm not able to go back in time more than ~10 days. Is there any way that I'm able to grab the hourly trend data given a date > 10 days from the API? Th
