The importance of context to data – IP Address vs Geolocate MAC Address

If this is my IP Address 64.134.26.153, where am I located?

According to the map, I’m in Texas!

We wrote a script to geolocate my Macbook Pro to the available WiFi, real location. Kinko’s in Vancouver BC routes all their Internet traffic via Texas.

IP Address tracking = FAIL.

WiFi MAC Address = WIN.

It’s clear what I like to tweet about.  The bigger the word, the more it was tweeted.  I also decided to really preprocess the data with this script: https://github.com/dgleebits/Twitter-Friend-or-Foe/blob/master/tweetClean.py
