and thanks to sp2hari for helping out with html parsing and 2s for telling me about XPATH ,i figured out html parsing is lot tougher than XPATH and would definitely recommend it more than html parsers !.

And yes ,dont be surprised if some posts are truncated ,twitter allows only 140 chars and so i had to truncate the commentary else, it wont get posted !

PS:the libraries used are twitter,urllib,urllib2,sgmlib and XPATH ,source code will be up here soon,or if u want it then mail me at theyaga@gmail.com. will mail u the code

India..and golf? That sounded so much out of context to me when I first heard it.

But did you know that the first golf club (club as in organization) outside Britain was formed in Bangalore, India (1820)? India, under colonial rule, had the honor of being the first country outside Britain to help develop golf as a sport. Turns out we did not leave even this stone unturned (cricket being the biggest) to mimic the royal empire !

The year-round warm climate and the vast stretches of lush green grasslands probably contributed their bit to this royal choice of creating a number of golf courses during the 19th century in India. Soon enough, we witnessed the Royal Calcutta (1829), Royal Bombay (1842) sprout up in no time.
