Edinburgh Science Festival - Twitter Knows What You Did Last Summer
Twitter currently has around 335 million active users. And with each user comes data. Twitter user data has been used to map public health, watch responses to natural disasters and even pre-emptively spot depressive behaviour. Our panel, including Twitter research expert Dr Wasim Amhed and Deputy Director of The Social Data Science LabDr Luke Sloan, takes a long hard look at social media, analysing sites live to show how much metadata is available and what it can be used for.
