Hi everyone Larry snow here and in this video
we're going to be taking a look at an
app called social bearing social bearing
provides insights and analytics for
twitter but it applies it right on a map
so the search results anything you find
will be geo-located to a particular map
now the geolocation is a little off so
the longitude and latitude is off just a bit to
protect privacy but this is a good
tool i think for the protection
professional for an open source
intelligence tool so let's take a look
over here on socialbearing.com and
we have our inputs right here
find tweets find a handle or look up a
handle
geo which is where we are going to spend a little
time on people
followers and friends and here are some
of the social bearing features but you
can take a look at that when you come to
the website so for us we're going to
take a look at geo let me click on the
Geo tab it will refresh now we can put in
keywords or hash tags or we can just go
right to the location so i'm just going
to right to the location and i'm going
to type in a so start with something
simple here and we're going to take a
look at let's say Boston Mass just like
the location will say ok and we click
search
now one of the things that social being
bearing has to be in compliance with is
twitter's api so when you do use
this either you save you know a drop you
know a throwaway type of twitter account or
use a an official twitter account if you
want to stay that way or you can use
your actual twitter account which is
what i'm going to do doesn't matter
either way it's only going to read your
bio and stuff and that is required by
Twitter because Twitter wants to know
who's using this data
ok so here's your geofence the circle
and I can turn that on our off over here
on the the user interface now one of the
things that we didn't take a look at in
the previous video with sentiment until
it does provide that in the advanced
search but it has a nice a social
bearing put it together in a nice
package here with the color codes so you
can take a look at what's what's the
sentiment is terrible and they pick up
on keywords like never frozen let's try
another one
now this is a a traffic that's a block
to stop delay those are called negative
or terrible sentiments the great is the
bright green and so they look at grow
and back when I like the fact that the
the key words are highlighted
let's take a look at good work shippable
Patriots hello
so you get the idea right so you can
have in a in a geolocation area and I
did two kilometers from the central
location of boston massachusetts and
these are pretty near time this is 12
minutes ago
29 minutes ago 19 minutes ago 42 minutes
ago
so it's pretty near time I can zoom in a
little bit and get a little bit more
detail on all of these here but so
that's good right so you can clicking
around you click on each one
but the great thing with social bearing
is if i scroll down like this it gives
you uh percentages it gives you the
source to treat my job's a that twitter
handle is twenty-nine percent of the
traffic in Boston right now
top domains shared tweets overtime gives
you a hash tag cloud a word cloud for
that area that we just did the geo
location on and then it gives you all of
the tweets that the ones we were just
that was clicking on it gives you all
the tweets right in a nice dashboard
view and you can take a look at how many
who is following them
who is following the back and follow his
followers how what's the reach so great
insight here even from a social media
marketing perspective but more so from
an open source intelligence perspective
you get to see the connections of the
people right
not in a matrix kind of form but
certainly you can go that way and also
we also have down here languages so this
is a fantastic resource of for your
investigations or open source
intelligence protective intelligence and
over here on the on the left side we
have just the pictures
so it now is it down so we did all
tweaked types right that was a big chunk
we saw and I just click on pictures over
here on the left side and it shows only
the pictures only the tweets that have
pictures in them only length only
verified accounts and then all the
tweets again another feature that this
has over here is that will refresh every
10 seconds it will refresh up to two
thousand tweets so if I click on that
button it will have a nice countdown
click off of that just wait for that to
refresh
ok this is eight new tweets found and
again you can scroll down zoom in zoom
out
scroll down to the latest tweets are now
every single cell that's the lawn so
every 10 seconds is going to refresh and
if there's no new tweets built it and
show you and read mean tweets right up
here will show that on the screen
what's even better let me turn that off
what's even better for this so using
this tool is that you can download this
all is a CSV you can export a max of
five thousand tweet so we can download a
CSV we can download each of these charts
download the image of all those charts
tweets over time we can have a sort
function over here we can also
auto-refresh too so if you're not
looking at the map you can have the same
tools down here and then you can start
the tweets by retweet favorite
engagement followers
