Text Mining and Update

Text Mining
I found text mining interesting. The tools we used were nice to compare and look for trends through large documents or sets of information. However, I struggled to see how it could be used as strong evidence for anything. There was definitely a use for personal analysis, and as illustrations for larger points, yet it seemed difficult to find a greater solid use for both Wordle and Ngram.

Project UpdateIt is going well, I ran into an issue last week that tweaked my angle slightly. I considered changing my question all together, but I think I can work around doing that through an exhibit on the website. It was harder then I thought to find different stuff that could build a single narrative. It has been interesting seeing what works and what doesn’t. I am slightly behind on adding items cause, but should have a good basis here in a few days!
