Are there any publicly available sources of geolocated Tweets?
I'm aware that one can collect them on their own, but was wondering if there is something readily available to play with.
There is a similar question on Stack Overflow; however it's not focused on geolocation and the first source mentioned there informs that:
As per request from Twitter the data is no longer available.
Second one seems to be limited to specific tags.

Here's the entry from @underdark where she explains how to get geolocated tweets using curl.
