@instrmntl thanks! i'm still working on an interactive version. i need to multithread the app am planning on adding a timeline to scrub through the duration in which tweets occur. some of the articles in my db have a couple thousand associated tweets, so when it starts to visualize a bunch, the app chugs.
@mrghost i've actually heard that from a few people. its interesting, since i ended up implementing projectile trajectory equations for the lines from a military ballistics text.
