Although DataForager will be more generally useful as I add more data extraction types, its value for writing social media stories is much less than just following a given hashtag. All but one of the people cited in the Global Voices article tweeted about Internships only once. The hashtag is a much better record of the conversation.

Instead of trying to use the twitter accounts to write a followup, an alternative approach would be to follow the twitter accounts in the article to see if another topic emerges– and then write about that with reference to the social media accounts surfaced by DataForager.
