EDIT: Also.. just a quick market survey.. would you pay for this? Let's say a subscription-based service.. what would you pay for the capability to get sentiment about a stock ticker and related terms in a social media feed.

I think retail clients are not willing to pay for information. They are already overloaded with "free" information from so many different sources. I think you want to target institutional clients like hedge funds, who are more than willing to pay for information if it means they will have edge over their competitors.
