Locations from Twitter
I've created a Yahoo Pipe that filters out the latitude, longitude of a twitter user (along with the age of the data in seconds)
You can go and visit the pipes page if you want to mess around with it/clone it or you can just use the CSV url to get the data straight away!
http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.run?_id=67d8d6cc0661614c6d9848e761c8128a&_render=csv&screen_name=TWITTER_SCREEN_NAME
If the user has a geotag'd tweet in their last 200 then this will return a simple CSV of their Lat/Long and age of the data, or an empty file if no data is found.

Want to make your mbed aware of where a twitter user is? This Yahoo Pipe will drastically reduce the amount of work your mbed has to do to get the data.

I'm working on a replacement for this as it can be fairly slow. I'm trying to write code that will parse the twitter feed on the mbed itself.
