We have been doing some experiments with Twitter and geospatial data. I
just made a 3-minute video this morning that demonstrates the extremely
limited availability of geospatial data, even in Tweets collected using the
GNIP-enabled Power Track for Twitter (the full fire hose).

This may change over time. I have recently talked to Michael Macy of
Cornell, who has made strides identifying techniques for using a
combination of features to peg the country of most Tweets. My sense,
however, is there is much work to be done.
