tWinnow

tWinnow filters your tweets intelligently into categories of interest to you

This is a PRELIMINARY VERSION of tWinnow, a smart application for Twitter that allows automatic filtering and classification of tweets into categories which represent your topics of interest, and that you can customize as you wish. This app facilitates the access to the content that really matter to you, in a very fast and easy manner. The app implements two kinds of categories: the "manual categories" allow you to establish direct filtering criteria (message source, keywords in content, hashtags...), and the intelligent "magic categories" enable you to teach the app how to filter your tweets in real-time, mimicking your own classification. In addition, each tweet does not have to fit within a single category, but may be classified in several of the categories you have created.

Since testing tWinnow requires a given amount of tweets in some topics and to dedicate some time to the learning, this first DEMONSTRATION VERSION includes five pre-created and pre-trained categories so you can just start from scratch and check how your tweets are classified. The intelligent filter has been optimized for tweets in ENGLISH, however, it is possible to use it with any other language(s) provided the fact you will accept a slight drop of performance.
