    Search myspace for words in all users streams

     Hi, I'm trying to search everyone's Myspace statuses for keywords and get the results back as some sort of XML or JSON (or anything, really). 

    I can do this with other social networks, for example, if I want to search twitter for tweets for people mentioning the word "coffee", i hit the url

    http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=coffee&lang=en

    and get a xml string back.

    I've found that I can search a particular persons stream for keywords; but I want to search *all of myspace* for keywords.

    I can't even find a way to do this with a normal web search; the search just seems to look through their profiles etc.

    Is what i'm trying to do possible? Do I have to use something in the API or is there just a atom feed I can access?

    thanks!

     You should set up a Stream subscription and filter it any way you see fit:

    you will need to set up a MyspaceID app then use that consumer key/secret to create a subscription. You will need to specify an endpoint where we push the stream content to you.

     

    thanks,

    Joel
