I have hanging baskets with tomato plants. How often should I water them?

I water mine daily. Make sure you don't drown them, but a couple quarts of water each day would be about right. Keep it consistant. The splitting of the tomato as they enlarge and ripen as well as bottom rot is uneven watering.
Growing the tomato plant upside down makes the fruit much easier to pick. This is a page about growing tomatoes upside down.

I have just bought some "Tumbler" tomato plants for hanging baskets, for the first time. Do I still need to pinch out the side shoots in the same way as normal tomatoes?
Has anyone out there seen the wonderful advertisement on TV for growing tomatoes hanging upside down? I looked at the price of each and decided I couldn't afford to buy 6 or 7.
