Twitter Sentiment Analysis: Try it out!

This was a fun mini project with two friends from the Hopkins MBA/MA design program. Nothing special, just type in a twitter handle and the back end uses a vanilla ML algo to analyze the text of the past several tweets and tells you how positive the tweeter is. After all, isn't being positive a virtue?

In the spirit of philosophical teaching, it is said that speech is not meant to cause suffering in others. Other inherited wisdom says if you have nothing to say don't say anything at all. I'm always weirded out by the latter piece of wisdom in action because it's implied that you have nothing nice to say when you say nothing. I've been in the same room where someone complemented my friend, and my friend looked at the person giving them the compliment and just said nothing. Honestly, they couldn't think of one nice thing to say in response. EVERYONE noticed the silence.

Anyways, be nice, be positive, and enjoy this little fun tool. Oh and WARNING it is not very accurate
