Hi I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong area, as I haven't posted here before and am not a developer. I am a lecturer and researcher at Dublin Business School and I've tried to find what I'm looking for elsewhere, but so far haven't found what I need. I reckon this is fairly straightforward, but I'm not a coder, so I don't know. If you think you can do this, please email me with a quote
I need help with a project I'm trying to get off the ground - I'm a research psychologist with a special interest in social networking. Basically, I want to look at the personality profile of Twitter users. This has been done before with Facebook, but with self-reporting of usage data. I want an app which will, with the user's permission, produce their overall statistics:- e.g. number of followers, following, listed, tweets, date joined, number of @replies, #hashtags, retweets, and links. This will form part of an online survey which will also include personality and other psychological measures (for more information see http://www.ciaranmcmahon.ie/psychbook/social-network-profiling-project/). The basic idea is to see if there is a relationship between personality traits and actual Twitter usage. For example, I'm interested in things like the personality differences between the average Facebook and Twitter user, what types of people do or don't retweet or provide links - that type of thing Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Ciarán -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk
