Tweeting #AmAnth17 - Part 2


This morning, before I left for AAA, I took a few moments to download #AmAnth17 tweets.  As you might expect, there was more twitter traffic than last week (603 edges), but still loosely connected (i.e., a low density) and still concerned mostly with advertising panels and other events.

Here’s a rather ineffective visualization (sorry – but I’m away from my office computer now), and a list of the 30 most prominent user names (by in-degree centrality).

The word cloud supports this interpretation—a series of keywords and prominent user names distributed like stars in the AmAnth universe.   Meaning (and action) have yet to coalesce at this conference!
