I'm surprised they found that high of a correlation. Also interesting is that they were trying to gauge market trends by using "emotional" types of words (“friendly,” “peeved,” “active,” “on edge” and “panicky"). It'd be interesting to see their data on how different factors affected overall emotions. Or maybe an overall study on how to predict people's emotions, and aggregate emotions on the Internet. kaiden@idkfa.com (kaiden) Indiscernible from Magic Tue, 19 Oct 2010 16:57:38 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=1068&msg_id=1069 http://www.idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=1068&msg_id=1068 Holy shit: http://www.wired.com/wiredscience/2010/10/twitter-crystal-ball/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+wired%2Findex+%28Wired%3A+Index+3+%28Top+Stories+2%29%29&utm_content=Google+Feedfetcher Researchers use Twitter to predict stock market trends three days in advance with +80% accuracy using archived tweets from 2008 and historical stock market data. kitacek@idkfa.com (kitacek) Indiscernible from Magic Tue, 19 Oct 2010 16:01:21 -0800 http://idkfa.com/v3/v_thread.php?thread_id=1068&msg_id=1068
