[Air-L] (Fabelier Workshop) Ethnographic Approach to millions of nodes - Twitter API Hands-on

[Antoine Mazières]

Hi all,

Joaquin Keller ( @joaquinkeller ) will present a workshop on the Twitter 
API, oriented to digital humanities potential uses.

This workshop will happen on march 23th, 7pm at Fabelier's Lab, at the 
Center of Interdisciplinary Research, Paris, France. 
(http://fabelier.org/where)

The idea is to catch the stream of all tweets (~ 100 millions daily) and 
process them to extract the hashtag #zeitgeist, ie the most popular 
hashtags of the moment. This program consisting of few dozen lines of 
python will be modified during the workshop to filter out and processing 
the tweets according to the attendants suggestions.

If you have any expectations or wishes about such a workshop please let 
us know (https://groups.google.com/group/fabelier)

Please read/write our wiki to know better what you need to do in order 
to prepare for the workshop.
