#MLA14 Twitter Archive, 9-12 January 2014

#MLA14 is the hashtag which corresponded to the 2014 Modern Language
Association Annual Convention. The Convention was held in Chicago from Monday
9 to Sunday 12 January 2014.

This dataset is a CSV file including data from tweets harvested by Ernesto
Priego (City University London) and Chris Zarate (MLA). This dataset includes
tweets posted during the actual convention: the set starts with a tweet from
Thursday 9 January 6:04:45 AM  and ends with a tweet from Sunday 12 January
2014 23:32:46 Central Time. The total number of tweets in this dataset sums
21,915 tweets.

A combination of Twitter Archiving Google Spreadsheets (Martin Hawksey's TAGS
v5; available at http://mashe.hawksey.info/2013/02/twitter-archive-tagsv5/)
was used to harvest this collection. OpenRefine (http://openrefine.org/) was
used for deduplicating the data.

An initial analysis of the data was posted as a series of blog posts by
Ernesto Priego published between 16 January and 22 January 2014 at MLA Commons
(http://remoteparticipation.commons.mla.org/2014/01/16/mla14-a-first-look/)
(accessed 4 February 2014).
