Provider of information about tweets. Hack for MHacks V in Ann Arbor, Michigan, January 16-18, 2015
We're all avid users of Twitter, and we were interested in the statistics behind tweets. We want to provide an easy-to-use and live service that allows anyone to search for a keyword and return information about that word. Using the Twitter Streaming API to obtain access to live tweets, we are able to provide information such as a cumulative count of the number of times that word was used in a tweet since the user requested the information, the average number of tweets per minute that contains that word, and a graph that plots the number of times the keyword was used.
We developed both a mobile and a web application for Twilive, so whenever you need to do research for a project, or just curious about tweets on the road, there is always a way for you to learn about your tweets.
- Backend/Android- Java
- Frontend/Web- HTML/CSS/JavaScript/jQuery + animate.css + canvasjs
- Database- MongoDB
- Server- Microsoft Azure
Future Goals:
- Post some tweets containing the keyword
- Post pictures from tweets containing the keyword
- Add geographical map and markers to track location of tweets
- Add information about tweets in the past with the keyword (using the Twitter Rest API)
