We have been collecting tweets on DiscoverText. For example, we got quite a
few leading up to the State of the Union:

These tweets are available for use and re-use in their raw and de-duplicated
forms.
You can try DiscoverText for free for 30 days:

So far I have collected over 500,000 comments off the Whitehouse Official
Facebook page. Inside DT you can remove duplicates, run searches that create
sub-set "buckets", and assign groups of coders. We also feature tools for
measuring inter-rater reliability and adjudicating the validity of coding.
Several universities have purchased enterprise site licenses:

If your university is on this list, you can get a license key for 2011
today. If your university wants to be on the list, have your IT purchasing
agent contact me.
