Retrieving older Tweets
If you’re looking for tweets that date back further than 6-9 days, you wont find them on twitter anymore. Instead you could try http://topsy.com. TOPSY does not only offer real time search for the social media, but also an extensive archive of tweets that date back several months or even years.
Philipp, if we cannot find enough articles, can we use different key words on the same newspaper? We might have to do this for several of them.
Billy, yes absolutely — that’s common practice. Just double-check with me, before you start to retrieve the newspaper articles.
