What's wrong with my Twitter stream bounding boxes?

Given this url, I should see tweets around London, right?

http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json?locations=51.23,-0.28,51.68,0.25

But nothing happens :(

I tried different areas but I couldn't get nothing at all, although I'm trying areas given in the doc, neither using cURL / POST.

When I add a keyword track parameter, I get ton of tweets -- but it doesn't mean that location works (location bounding boxes are logical ORs w/ other filtering params).

Thanks !

In my experience with the Streaming API, I have found that there's a surprisingly small amount of geotagged tweets. And, it's possible your locations are too restrictive. But when you add the keyword parameter, as you state, you're getting OR'd results back for both searches -- Twitter does this so you can perform multiple streaming queries on the same connection.

If you try

http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json\?locations\=-180,-90,180,90

You get all sorts of responses back.

EDIT: oops, also, you have your longitude and latitude backwards. longitude comes first in their API. This URL works:

 http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json\?locations\=-0.28,51.23,0.25,51.68
