New Twitter Features: Few Suggestions, Request for Further Suggestions

[ianmilligan1]

Right now we've got URL extraction, language extraction, hashtag extraction, and image extraction. We should have a few more features documented. I think this could begin with:

• plain text extraction -> one line per tweet text;
• user extraction (i.e. top ten users in a corpus);
• retweeted tweet tracking (i.e. top ten retweeted tweets);

There may be other requests, so please let us know in this issue.

Might as well list everything we can do with twarc utils. Twarc utils that I heavily use:

• deduplicate
• embeds (embedded media in a tweet)
• filter_date
• geojson
• ids
• retweets
• tags (hashtags)
• unshorten
• users
• validate

jq queries;

• extract text
