Hi Rohan,
Unfortunately archived data is not the Twitter API's strongest point. The
Search API's index usually only reaches back about a week. You'd be better
enabled to collect data by focusing on a current topic and using the
streaming API to receive relevant matching tweets in real time as

I'd like the twitter search widget to show more tweets historically.

The Twitter Search API docs (http://dev.twitter.com/pages/

that some Tweets and users may not be missing from search results. If
you want to match for completeness you should consider using the
Streaming API

Hi Zhe,
The Search API can only return approx 1800 per query. Creating a radius that

Instead you may wish to use the Streaming API. Using this API you can say

I need to specify a center with latitude and longitude and a radius.
Is there a limitation of the radius? Can I create a circle cover the

do it directly using twitter API?

Hi Todd,
Looking at the date you sent your email I noticed it was 7 days after the

Hope that answers your question,

Twitter Search only contains Tweets for ~5 days so there isn't a way
to 'find' the Tweets you are looking for using the Twitter APIs
directly.
Instead, we recommend you 'track' the keywords you are interested in
using the Streaming API. This will allow you to aggregate all the
Tweets that match
The search gives you back a list of tweets from the past, the stream
will send tweets to your application the moment they are sent.

420 is a rate limit. The actual error message in the response does state
