• This is an ipython notebook for analysts and learners who are eager to interact with and build intelligence from the social media service Twitter.
• To use this resource, you need to have a twitter API account and have your credentials ready to go
• There are two required modules to work with Tweepy and Twython

Aim

• This module will help you recreate Twitter Exchanges: conversations on Twitter.

Modus

• This scripts finds a tweet by it's id, check's if it is a reply and walks back the conversation up to the original tweet.
• For best result you will want to identify the very last exchange in the mix

Helper

• As there is still some work to do to get the id of the tweet of interest, I have also include a function profile_Scrapper to help retrieve all tweets of a handle.

Suggested Updates/Features

• I am working on getting all replies to a single tweet which service is not included in Twitter's API but if there any other things you would love to do on twitter around conversations, feel free to drop me a line.
