BlueJay Helps Law Enforcement Monitor Twitter

The BlueJay tool lets law enforcement officers tap into the firehose of tweets, targeting crime mentioned in tweets, hashtags and other corners of Twitter. Users can choose “Red Flag Terms,” put certain users on a Twitter “User Watches” and create a pinboard map charting Twitter activities.
