Twitter's 'premium' tools let more apps use your data
Twitter hasn't exactly been known for a developer-friendly attitude, but it's tackling that issue today. The social site has unveiled a "premium" programming framework that bridges the gap between its free-but-limited standard tools and the costly tools limited to big businesses.

Eventually, there will be an option to comb through Twitter's data history.
