So in honor of the 4th of July, we selected all geotagged tweets[1] sent within the continental US between June 22 and June 28 (about 10 million in total) and extracted all tweets containing the word "church" (17,686 tweets of which half originated on Sunday) or "beer" (14,405 tweets which are much more evenly distributed throughout the week). See below for more technical details[2] or just go straight to the map below to see the relative distribution of the tweets in the U.S.My social media communications prior to the fourth involved serving beer in the church parking lot where people could watch the fireworks, so I should have been in the middle range. I'd like to see this map correlated to the percentage of Catholics in each of the counties.
