Sentiment analysis of "a Christmas carol". With code available, could reproduce similar analysis. Very cool! https://t.co/wgjtmMeUvL

Writing is very difficult but I want to be good at it. It takes practice, just like muscles. If I put enough effort and time into it, I hope some day I would become a good writer. Someone who can clearly convey ideas to general audience.

Tree map is a great way to present information. However, I still find it difficult to understand what is really going on. I find cartogram is better than treemap, just personal preference.

It's interesting to see how the US is a diverse but segregated country via network analysis.
A quote I really like from the article: "what makes people willing to hear difference is knowing and trusting people whose worldview differs from their own."

@stary_shen It would be interesting to see the demographics of these areas.

Word choice does play a role in conveying information. Seeing the changing trends of data visualization and information graphic. Data visualization is definitely becoming more popular and used and searched by more people.

Natural language processing is a great combo of statistics and linguistics, science and social science. It always excites me to see people bring social context to statistical analysis.

Wow- NLP analysis discovers more than a million fake anti-net-neutrality comments. Brilliant data science detective work by @thisismetis student Jeff Kao. https://t.co/p9vooF5GPd #datablog

Kaggle data challenge is always an inspiration for me. Look at what others can do with the dataset, can I do similar things? https://t.co/Z6IUhoeAMD

Recently been exploring d3 and found out about htmlwidget and scatterd3. People already built libraries to integrate d3 into R, so #ggplot becomes interactive. It's very user friendly and much faster than building everything from scratch using d3 but D3 is still powerful!

science communication is awesome. In statistics class, I recognize a need to bring social context into statistical analysis; in media studies class, there is an absence of a data-driven approach in qualitative media examination. I am inspired to unite these 2 fields via data viz.

Writing is ALL about editing. There is no perfect first draft. Start writing with something now, then think about grammar, structures, etc.

#FirstStatsTweet #UCBStatWriting I am taking science communication taught by @DebAtStat and @sastoudt A great combo of my passions for science and journalism. How to translate abstract scientific knowledge into things everyday man can understand. Writing is an essential skill.
