Plan for twitter api

[CasperSpronk]

The plan is to pick a date to test the twitter api. This date should be one with clear trending topics to check wether or not the program correctly picks what is and isnt trending. By cherry picking this date (for instance the 2014 world cup final) we can easily check if our results are correct.

Possible criteria for twitter trends:

• hashtags (somewhat matching #wcfinal and #worldcupfinal should be considerd one thing)
• words used in tweets (looking at the content of the tweet and not just the hashtag)

Part one completed; for non-live (/old) data it is possible to make a descending sorted list of most-used hashtags in messages given a json-file with data. See the branch Old-Data.
