Katie_Hinde_Twitter_storm_text_analysis

The following R scripts were used to compile and analyze data from the Twitterstorm that resulted from this tweet:

1. get_tweets.R - compiles and cleans replies and quote tweets
2. get_network.R - creates social network based on common friends of users involved in the Twitterstorm
3. analysis.R - performs analyses using outputs from get_tweets.R and get_network.R

I wrote a blog post about my analysis of the Twitterstorm.

A streamlined version of the data for this project is available on figshare, including the raw tweet data, cleaned tweet data, and social network data.
