Categorize tweets and help me with my research

As part of my graduate research I’m building a tool that automatically analyzes what people are talking about on Twitter, as organized by your typical news categories (sports, technology, etc.).

Here’s a really useful and easy way to help me with this. Just click here, enter a username (don’t use your full name, please), and assign a category to each tweet that you see. If you revisit the site later, please use the same username.

Do as few or as many as you’d like, any help is appreciated.

Also, it looks great on your iPhone so make good use of that boring commute home or office meeting!

Thank you!

Shawn
