[Air-L] social media research tools?

[Alex Gekker]

Hi Mel,

Following the recommendations above, you can check the full tool set of the
Digital Methods Initiative: https://wiki.digitalmethods.net/Dmi/ToolDatabase
They are free and open for use, though some of them might require password
due to server / privacy issues.
