The CSV file is a dataset including data from tweets harvested by Ernesto
Priego (City University London). The dataset includes tweets posted between Friday March 07 15:15:29 +0000 2014 and Thursday March 13 14:04:22 +0000 2014. Martin Hawksey's TAGS v5 was used to harvest the tweets. The data is raw and it is made available as is. It is likely to require deduplication and refining before analysis.
