Mideast Tweets: Find tweets from and about the Middle East

Twitter is a great tool that allows us to communicate in ways that we never did before. The best part about Twitter is how fast we can be aware of new projects, incidents, or even opinions before they are picked up anywhere else. Mideast Tweets helps us discover how Twitter is being used in the Middle East and North Africa, and what is being discussed in this region.

It has several functionalities and we hope to introduce many more over the next few weeks. Currently, you can conduct a search by country, and choose to see tweets in the form of a list by clicking on “See All” at the bottom of each pop-up.

Mideast Tweets started out being a project for the personal use of Mideast Youth members to keep up with what was being said in the Twittersphere, since we were intrigued by how and where others in the region are using it, but we collectively found it difficult for us to discover new regional Twitter users, hence this project. We liked it so much that we decided to improve it and make it available to the public.

The results are imperfect, due to the many imperfections of the Twitter service itself, but most of the tweets are legitimate. Please be aware that we are still in BETA mode and improvements will continue.

Suggestions for improvement are always welcome. Volunteer developers who can help build upon this are even more welcome! We hope that you will find this useful and to your enjoyment.
