python-twitter streaming api support/example

I was working with python-twitter and realized that twitter provides streaming api to consume tweets in realtime. I found one example that uses pyCurl here

Have anyone tried or know how to use that with python-twitter library? please let me know

Thank you

Check out tweetstream for a nice high-level library to access twitter's streaming API.

python-twitter doesn't support twitter's real time API.

You will have to use Twisted, Tornado or Eventlet to consume such a real time API.

I know not, of any existing open source libraries in Python supporting this service right now.
