Daniel Abernathy has a new tutorial on Scotch.io on processing Tweets with Twitters streaming API:
This tutorial will show how to use the Twitter Streaming APIs to process tweets in real-time from a Laravel application. There are a variety of use cases for this: perhaps you want to auto-respond to mentions of your company, run a contest via Twitter, or create support tickets when users complain about your product. For this tutorial, we’ll build a “featured tweets” widget to display approved tweets on our app’s home page.
