Datasift has formed an alliance with Twitter. Twitter has agreed to give Datasift permission to access tweets clear back from January 2010. While I don't completely agree with this, we did it to ourselves. We made out tweets open to the public and now they are viewing and using them. There is a ton of information that this company will get from Twitter. Other companies will pay Datasift to view these tweets to know more about their customers, and Datasift will be paying twitter a portion of that.
