Is anyone using any analytic tools and if so which?

I have access to, well, all of the big dogs. I was curious if anyone else was using anything?

I'm using pandas and nltk in Python to analyze it.

I'm using R - mostly dplyr tools and tidytext so far. I have experience working with Twitter data so this isn't too foreign for me.

Anyone using any kind of Tweet viewer for locally stored Tweets? I was about roll my own, but would be nice to get a jump start. I may also build and ETL for Neo4j if anyone is interested.

@buddha314 if you need hosting, we can incorporate it into http://www.fromrussiawithtroll.com/ the database already contains all the data you need. I'm also thinking of graphs about the timeline for each country. Is quite quick to feed the data to grafana

All right, let me think about what I want to do and get back to you.

After a brief search, I wasn't able to find an analytic tool for Tweets. Think I'll start an open source one and I'd be happy to help on from russia with trolls. If anyone is interested in helping, contact me via github or buddha_314 at protonmail dot com.

Hey guys... any thoughts on maybe finding any social media links to try to sort out how this guy got a couple of thousand votes from the “Green Party” in OH12? I suspect that they were targeted by who knows but I suspect bad actors. There is no way in hell the Green Party got that many votes in a primary, in Ohio. Well, at least not legitimately. I appreciate your thoughts. Buni

I have the tweets available as a public dataset in BigQuery: https://github.com/fivethirtyeight/russian-troll-tweets/issues/3#issuecomment-414105925
