You will need to authenticate with Twitter to use these scripts. To do
so, sign up for developer credentials and create a Twitter app here:

	https://dev.twitter.com/apps/new

Then add your consumer and access tokens to `config.py`.

This collection was first developed for a 2012 laboratory in social data
mining for the MA/MSc Digital Sociology, Digital Journalism and Creating Social
Media courses at the Centre for Creative and Social Technology, Goldsmiths,
University of London.
