A few days ago I reset almost all of my primary Twitter output since 2007.

First, I made archives to revisit some prior analysis.

Next, I started looking around on GitHub for inspiration.

Little Big Data

A few years ago I did a big data presentation. There was even a video of it. (Update: the video appears to be private as of 2022)

At the time, I had downloaded some R examples to run against my Twitter archives.

Why archives? I tweet(ed) a lot. So, the limitations on web access applied.

I included some of these references in the presentation.

Trends: @Qthrul

This time around I found another example using Python:

A few seconds later… this caught my eye for @Qthrul:

Trends: @JayCuthrell and @JayAtDellEMC

But I had also created other Twitter accounts.

Let’s take a look at @JayCuthrell:

Update for July 2022

Crypto Reply Spam on Twitter in 2022 got pretty annoying before the β€œcorrection”. YMMV.

Update for May to June 2023
