Progress + Distribution of New News Sources
Hey guys,
I have here documented some of the progress of today, and also what I have found. I am now done with my data search, and the others will finish tomorrow or tonight, before we upload it into Leximancer.
At the bottom of this post, everyone can check their news sources for the last of the “trusted news sources” data. I have gone through all of them to check language, if it is actally a written source and not just TV, and if it mentions. I also included the IDs links and keywords for each of the sources, so should be quick now. Karo and Chika will share one source, as it was only three more to check into.
So, after 14 hours of constant work, I am going to bed…
Good Night!

Great job! Get some sleep Rine… BTW: Good news — I just had a brief look at the Wall Street Journal issue… the main-page seems to be this one: “online.wsj.com. I’ve just used: “mali site:online.wsj.com”. Result: heaps of articles (it seems)… Good night!
Thank you Rine for the new distribution.

The Times of India (6)
The Sun (none available)
Daily Mail (3)
USA Today (6)
I will continue in the morning!
An due to the extensive posting on our work today, I feel that anythin I would write now as “team leader” would be a repitition so I skip it!
I think thats ok Karo…
Don’t really know how to proceed now. Sampling is done… Think we should start Leximancing
