I've written before about how to get breaking news on Twitter, but the approach I discussed there requires the user's intervention. Many Twitter clients, in fact, force you to interact with the on-screen client in order to get the tweets you want delivered. Even when the tweets are pushed to your client by Twitter, they often require a touch or mouse click to become visible.
Twitter does include APIs, though, that developers can use to push messages and create a real-time, live stream of auto-refreshed tweets. The streaming APIs, for example, use a persistent HTTP connection and parse, filter and aggregate before storing the results to a data store.

Developers can then get their apps to auto-refresh or just notify the user that tweet events have occurred, as is the case with many Android apps.
Auto-refresh can be used to leave Twitter running on a PC-connected TV, for example, without involvement from you. You can then just glance at the screen.
Here's how to stream and auto-refresh your Twitter feed using the Chrome or Firefox desktop browsers, or stream a keyword feed using social network management tool HootSuite's live Twitter feed tool.
Note: Falcon Pro is an Android app that allows auto-refresh streaming. It's currently unavailable to new users because it has reached Twitter's 100,000-user-token limit. However, existing token owners can still download and auto-refresh feeds on Android devices with it.
