Twitter User Timeline Towers

The Twitter API allows collecting the most recent 3200 tweets of any public user, but finding ways to interact with all of that data in order to gain insight into user behaviors can be a challenge. Here are examples of how to view and interact with a Twitter user's timeline tweet data using Python and the ANTz 3D visualization tool. Learn more about how this visualization developed and how it was used to explore Twitter bot behavior.

Here's a link to the Github repo containing Jupyter Notebook Python scripts to create your own Twitter user timeline towers.
