DataSift and Its Getting the Most from Facebook Series

November 6, 2016

There’s been some chatter about Facebook’s approach to news. For some researchers, Facebook is a high value source of information and intelligence. If you want to get a sense of what one can do with Facebook, you may find the DataSift series “Getting the Most from Facebook” helpful.

At this time there are six blog posts on this topic, you can locate the articles via the links below. Each write up contains a DataSift commercial:

  1. Types of social networks
  2. What data analytics can be used on Facebook data
  3. Facebook topic data
  4. Topic data use cases and drawbacks
  5. Why use filters
  6. Pylon specific tips but these apply to other analytics systems as well.

The write ups illustrate why law enforcement and intelligence professionals find some Facebook information helpful. Markets are probably aware of the utility of Facebook information, but to get optimum results, discipline must be applied to the content Facebookers generate at a remarkable rate.
