User Stream and TweetSharp

Question

I'm using User Stream and Instead of pull-to-refresh to check for new tweets or waiting for the 5 minute auto-refresh to take place, I want tweets appear instantly in timeline as they are published.

I'm using TweetSharp with Xamarin.IOS

Any Code Sample will help a lot even if with other Programing Lang

I can't really help you with the Xamarin part of it, since I haven't used any of the Xamarin tools, but you want to use the Streaming part of TweetSharp to handle this. See this section for the classes you'll probably want to use:

Here is a code sample of using streaming in TweetSharp: https://gist.github.com/kensykora/8005935

See the official twitter docs on their streaming here: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/streaming-apis
