Is it possible to get more than 100 tweets?

Question

Is it possible to get more than 100 tweets using the Twitter4j API?
If so can anyone point out the way to do so??

Answer 1

For a given query it is possible to extract more than 100 tweets. For a quick demo you can download a twitter GUI application for tweet extraction available at http://preciselyconcise.com/apis_and_installations/tweets_extraction_from_twitter.php.

By extracting query results from all available pages for that query, you will be able to extract more than 100 tweets if available under that query. I downloaded the GUI application available in that website and i was able to extract more than 1000 tweets for query #happy.
