| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We build a Web Tweet Crawler System (WTC) for collecting Tweets data. This project also examined how dissemination by Twitter occurred and how hubs and ordinary people contributed diffusion on social media. Examining various Tweets data, including demagogue data, election data, social-event data, we found opinion leaders, followers and ignorant influencers did affect people's recognition of social realty. Aggregation and converting micro tweets data macro, so called “big data” allowed us to monitor and sensor quasi public opinion. We propose categorization of social media users' reaction to various social events.
