I wanted to create an application that will allow you to search for #ABC and get the sentiment value of the tweets that mention #ABC.
- Current Confidence is currently in its BETA stage. More features to be added in the future.
HOW TO USE IT
1. Log-in or create new account
2. Search item (right now only 5 character items are searchable)
3. View sentiment graph & retreived tweets
4. Create a portfolio of saved searches (no restriction on character letters)
