Twitter predicts stock market trends*
A recent study in Indiana University-Bloomington found out that “large-scale Twitter feeds are correlated to the value of the Dow Jones Industrial Average over time.”
What else can Twitter predict? The weather? Earthquakes? Volcanic eruptions? Oil price hikes? The end of the world (which got postponed)?
Exciting.
