Search over 1.2 million Bible verses on Twitter<\/a>–nearly every tweet that has mentioned a Bible verse since April 2009. You can also see a list of the most popular verses on Twitter over the past few hours (\u201cTrending Verses\u201d).<\/p>\n

\"Search<\/a><\/p>\n

This project uses several APIs from Twitter and is still in a beta stage. It could evolve in several directions, but I want to see how people use it before developing it further.<\/p>\n

It’s not quite realtime, but the most recent tweet is rarely more than a few minutes old.<\/p>\n

Behind the scenes, it processes tweets<\/a> to try to ensure their relevance; it has about a 92% accuracy rate based on a training corpus of around 45,000 tweets. Use the “relevant” and “not relevant” buttons in the interface if you see a tweet that you think should or shouldn’t belong. (I’m mostly interested in the latter, but it seems weird not to have both–like Facebook’s lack of an unlike button<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

It currently uses Logos RefTagger<\/a> to link the Bible references in the tweets.<\/p>\n

Feel free to leave a comment here if you have a feature idea or want to make any suggestions.<\/p>\n

Edit February 2016: This feature is no longer available; with over 200 million tweets, it’s just too much data to serve reliably. Instead, the latest tweets are visible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
