SNS Scrape

SNS Scrape is a scraping library in Python for scraping social media sites.

I tried this out in this Google Colab. Does not work with Instagram or Facebook (at least the accounts I tried), but can be used for Twitter.

The first time I used it, I tried it with @realDonaldTrump but that account is now permanently suspended and tweets are no longer available...

So instead, here are the tweets since the start of 2021 from Andrew Ng :-)

2021-01-19 06:55:35+00:00: Today is Martin Luther King Jr. day. After the violence in the U.S. Capitol on Jan 6th, I am struck by how far MLK  advanced civil rights through nonviolent activism. Let us build on his legacy and keep finding peaceful ways to advance civil rights. https://t.co/nnCgFRi5oF

2021-01-14 00:57:40+00:00: Democracy has taken a lot of damage recently. Last Wednesday was a nadir for the U.S., and the path back will be long and hard. But I believe the country has reached a turning point. Here're my thoughts on the role AI can play to support democracy. https://t.co/rjaaetR5kW

2021-01-06 22:31:31+00:00: U.S. democracy is going through a dark day today with the Capitol building breached. But we will get through this, democracy will prevail, and we will learn from this  and strengthen our nation against future assaults. 🇺🇸

2021-01-05 20:38:51+00:00: Congrats @OpenAI on really cool image generation result from a text+image prompt! Here's my favorite set of generated examples: https://t.co/sGXFNOc93n

2021-01-01 20:06:43+00:00: Happy New Year, friends! 🎉 2020 was a tough year for many, so lets make sure to build, support each other, and lift everyone up in 2021.
