I’ve just started a new project using the twitter gem  
[http://twitter.rubyforge.org/](http://twitter.rubyforge.org/) I’ve managed to authenticate a user and  
create an object out of it. Then I’ve pulled that user’s timeline and  
created an array out of their tweets. Now I’d like to find a way to  
parse specific information out of each tweet but I can’t find a list of  
relevant methods. I’d like to do something like:

tweets.each {|tweet| puts tweet.text  
puts tweet.location  
puts tweet.created\_at}

Am I doing this wrong? Is there another way to parse out this  
information?
