While I was living in Germany, I still wanted to connect with people in other cities and know their emotions. Therefore, I create the Tweets Around You to use the Twitter API and IBM Watson Analysis. In the age of everyone is the publisher and which make the Internet powerful, it is interesting that we could read each other's text and emotions in real time.


This app can be informational or entertaining to. The users can use it when they get bored, feel lonely or want to see the real-time information or a place. I want to connect people via the Internet and explorer the powerfulness of API provided by the social media, and cloud data analysis platform since they open up their resources. 


Further Development


The application can be modified to provide much more options for the users. For example, the location, the maximum range of the location, how many tweets they want to read. There are an only limited amount of options at the moment as I want to simplified the interface and let it be an entertaining application. Also, it can be an application that read their friend's tweets around them or according to location. According to the user opinions, these features can be added later.
