THE CASE OF TWITTER AND MOVEMBER 2013 JF - AoIR Selected Papers of Internet Research JA - SPIR VL - 4 IS - 0 SE - Papers DO - UR - https://spir.aoir.org/ojs/index.php/spir/article/view/8530 SP - AB - Using activity generated with Twitter during Movember 2013, we interrogate the natures of superficiality running through what can be defined as a highly successful public health engagement intervention. Indeed, Movember arguably has not just been successful in one year in terms of raising funds for the causes it is concerned with, it has done this year-on-year since 2004. We tracked the keyword 'movember' (without the hash symbol) using an in-house installation of YourTwapperkeeper hosted on a NECTAR server. Data collection ran from 01 October - 04 December 2013, covering the ramp-up and wind-down periods of the event. We collected a total of 1,313,426 tweets from 759,345 unique users. ER -
