Twitter archive from LIANZA Conference 2014 Pou Whakairo #lianza14.
It is done. It has taken a few days to wrangle, but after experimenting with mhawksey's TAGS v5.01 a short time ago, and then updating to TAGS v6, I've compiled and published my first set of twitter data. The data set is from the LIANZA 2014 conference and has been published CC-BY on figshare.
Note: this graphic includes all tweets collected, including those identified as having been deleted from the dataset on Figshare
I must acknowledge @ernestopriego from City University London for modelling this great practice in his data sets and for such a thorough description which I found extremely helpful in developing my own.[1]
As Ernesto notes in his own description, this kind of archiving may not be 100% accurate, however, compared with the only other method I have used previously, Storify, TAGS is much more reliable in terms of collating information and visualizing the data.
I do hope this is helpful, particularly to those who (like myself) were unable to attend the conference, those who are interested in libraries and information services, and the great things that are happening in NZ libraries.
If you do refer this data set, I'd be really interested to hear how it has been of use to you. You can find the #LIANZA14 data set on figshare:
