Twitter StreamGraphs is another very useful system. It has a real time search widget, but that does not produce a file for analysis.įriendFeed does real time research that continually updates itself, and the search results can be embedded in a web page. It finds much less than Archivist, for example. It does everything one would want except that its search is not very good. It will search blogs, microblogs, bookmarks, comments, events, images, news, videos, and audio. Socialmention will search and export the results of the search in csv format. So, the math is pretty simple all told, as far as instances of different twitter clients and not getting rate limited." You can only have 150 requests per hour ( ). I think I’m going to update it so that it polls every 5 minutes, which should keep you from getting rate limited, but if you are running multiple instances, you could get in trouble. So, it is possible that the archivist could miss tweets if there are more than 1500 results within the 10 minutes. I do know that they only allow for apps to get 1500 results at a time. " Well, the tricky thing is that they keep changing the rules and the server. This is how "Karsten here, lead dev on the Archivist" describes the limitations. Twitter puts limits on searches of its API. The record of that investigation is a collection of notes here: experimenting with Archivist. It is a new and not very well tested program, and I have been doing beta work for the programmers. Most of the search programs will search but will not produce a file. So it both searches and produces a file that can be analyzed. The advantage of the Archivist is it stores the file on the local disk drive in xml format, and it will output it in csv format. The full panoply of search constructions in the Twitter API are available in the Archivist. But it will do a pretty good job.Īrchivist is a program that runs on Windows computers. It is not as good a video editor as Premiere or Fast Cut Pro and others. It is a little sticky about giving up the edited video - though you can do sharing in some straightforward ways. Jaycut is a useful online video editing system. It will be kept up to date - I will add to it as I read more reports. The list is in chronological order with the oldest at the top and the newest at the bottom. The list on the left is almost wholly reports written by tech bloggers covering technology for searching communication on the web. But there is tracking software for other services and the Pew Foundation has conducted a series of surveys on use of the web. Searching Twitter has seen a particularly rapid development as Twitter increased in users in 2009. Many tools have been developed to track public commucation on the web.
