Twitter User Dataset

This dataset was obtained by crawling Twitter's REST API using the Python library Tweepy 3. The dataset comprises tweets from the 20 most popular Twitter users based on the number of followers, with retweets excluded. These accounts include public figures such as Katy Perry and Barack Obama, platforms like YouTube and Instagram, and television channels such as CNN Breaking News and The Ellen Show.

The dataset presents a diverse collection of tweets, ranging from relatively structured and formal to completely unstructured and colloquial in style. Unfortunately, geocoordinates were not available for these tweets.
