[Air-L] "Big Data" Tools

[Jennifer Stromer-Galley]

Oh, yes, share back the results!

Here at SU, Jeff Hemsley and colleagues have a publicly available collection system for Twitter data: https://github.com/bitslabsyr/stack

We have put in a proposal to fund the building of a toolsuite for the collection and automatic tagging of Facebook and Twitter data for social science researchers. If that happens, we'll be reaching out to researchers here and elsewhere for conversations about what we need in such a toolsuite.

Subject: [Air-L] "Big Data" Tools

AIR’ers: 

I’m working on compiling a rough list of tools and training modules that are useful for working with large-scale datasets (“Big Data”) and training. Essentially, I’m trying to build *something* that I can point newbies / graduate students / to when they say “I want to do Big Data”. I’ve got a rough list of coursera / edX / blog modules, but would welcome suggestions. I’m happy to share back the results.

(I did try to check the AIR archive, but was unable to access).

Thanks!
Matt
