Total wild ass guess, but I'd bet the total number of tweets for a region is roughly proportional to its total population. If that's true, the normalized results you see here will be very similar to the per-capita results. It'd be interesting to verify this, however. It would tell you "this region's twitter users are X% [more|less] 'hateful' than the region's general population."
- mtowle 13y agoThere's no way Montanans tweet just as often as Californians.
- benjamincburns 13y agoIt'd be interesting to find out. There are a lot of very diverse populations in California. [Edit: I should place extra emphasis on the word "roughly," in my OP as well.]
