Research or see what the Twitter API can offer us in regards to fetching the home time line of a specific user. The twitter home timeline is the feed of tweets for a user to consume. That is, tweets and retweets from followers.
[x] Xinqi: Research - concluded
[x] Specter: Give a second look, ~ 2 hours
Update
Xinqi has for the most part concluded that we are facing some limitations from the Twitter API. Aside from rate limits we can only fetch the latest 800 tweets from a users timeline. For us to be able to do any meaningful recommendations we'll need more than that.
We've assigned Specter to take a look as well with a different set of eyes just to make sure we're not missing anything because otherwise we have a lot of work ahead of us manually constructing a users timeline.
