F1 Fanatic

Today I found an interesting article at Technology Review* about personal data mining. One of the websites mentioned was analyzewords.com for analysing tweeter streams.

So I thought it would be interesting to see emotional analysis of the last GP’s (because it seems that analysis is limited to about 3 pages of tweets) tweets.

So here are emotional analysis of Suzuka GP :)

Redbulls are obviously highly satisfied with the result:

Ferrari is not quote happy and somewhat arrogant!:

McLarens were worried remained optimistic:

Mercedes seem positive in general but kind of depressed due to Rosberg’s retirement. :S :

Over to you.. Here are the F1 twitter directory and your tool:

http://www.wordle.net is also a great site to visualize word frequency. I did not get a nice one for tweets but the one I made for f1fanatic.co.uk looks pretty cool. Unfortunately it is apparently ran on the first page and thus dominated but the Russian GP news :) http://www.wordle.net/show/wrdl/2576137/F1_Fanatic

pretty cool. I check my own tweets though! Said I’m arrogant and worried! Well.. I was tweeting about the miners at the time, but I wasn’t saying stuff like.. ‘if it was me, I’d be out by now and down the pub’. Oh well :D
