The Demonanna Twitter Tool

Demonanna is a tool written in Python for scraping tweets and associated metadata from Twitter. Natural language processing (NLP) analysis can also be performed to find word relations, sentiment, subjectivity, and more. Unlike the Twitter Search API, which is more or less limited to tweets posted up to about 7 days ago, Demonanna can additionally save and process anything that is accessible on the Twitter website.
