It’s a student project, but Twipolitico has the potential to add some serious insight into the 2012 race.
The site tracks the real-time popularity of Barack Obama and Mitt Romney on Twitter, to see who’s winning the social media sentiment race.
Twipolitico is a creation of three computer science students from the University of Cincinnati. As their final project, they’ve come up with a pretty cool way to measure popularity on Twitter.
The site shows the popularity of Obama and Romney on Twitter using complex measures of influence, including the content and sentiment of tweets about the candidates.
