A tool for finding people and related topics in twitter

I make a tool called twithunter ( this name is not good, I want to change it). It can find people if you give a keyword (we only support single word, if you search machine learning, we will search “machine” or “learning”)

This tool is designed by two weeks data in twitter (6 million tweets), I only use a PC (3G CPU 2G RAM) to do all things becasue twitter is blocked in China and only windows system can visit them by “翻墙”. This service is on my dreamhost now.

We only support English now, and the next language we want to support is Chinese.

This tool has not finished yet and welcome every one test it and give us feedback.

P.S. we can do many things by data mining on twitter’s data. The next service may be user suggestion by the topic of active user’s past preference.
