Seemed a bit strange that they just gave it to me in the first place. What's stranger though is why they don't just monetize access to that in the first place. Data is 'open' but hooking up to the is $x. Others could broker the data on a as needed basis (perhaps I only want access to a set of people, or terms, or whatever), and I'd pay less through those 2nd-level access people.

I asked for it a few months ago and was given it within a day. It was a huge amount of data to parse/process, and I ran in to some problems with how OpenFire server deals with logs, but I had full access to everything. For free. Just by asking. Twitter doesn't have a signup screen, for example, but they seemed to be open about it when I asked, and I'm a relative nobody in the web world (not a friendfeed-size service, I mean). Ultimately, I ended up abandoning that particular project, and shut off receiving the feed. I wonder if I turned my openfire back on if I'd still get the feed again???
