See Tweets on a 3D globe of earth from space. Very cool!

If you thought the original Twittervision was cool, you need to check out Twittervision 3D . It is by the creator of Twittervision, Dave Troy. You can watch tweets around the world literally now. Whenever there is a tweet, the globe spins to that place and the tweet appears. You can also change the altitude / view.

This is hot off the presses and now Twittervision is allowing you to connect into their app via a new API. From their twittervision API website:

"Yes, it's time. We wanted to publish easy ways for people to work with the location-based information available through Twittervision and Twittermap. This is a start. There is more coming."

It looks like you can get the location and status of a user so far. We will see how the API and Twittervision develops and what they have up their sleeve next. It is just a guess but I assume that they (twittervision) must be getting hit with a ton of traffic these days..
