Until now the sentiment package for R only worked with English text. Today, I released version 1.0 of the sentiment package on GitHub that features multi-language support. In order to perform sentiment analysis with German text, just add the parameter language="german" as shown in this example:

The new code allows you to add any language. So far, I started to prepare German sentiment files. French and Spanish sentiment files are on my to-do list.
The tstats script (on GitHub) logs your Twitter Follower Stats with IFTTT to a Google Spreadsheet
How can we log the follower statistics for a Twitter account?
In order to store these stats, I’d like to use IFTTT’s new Maker channel that was introduced last month. I have created a simple Bash script (tstats.sh) to log this data to a spreadsheet in my Google Drive. I run this as a cron job every 24 hours.
A Google account, as the log is saved to a spreadsheet in your Google Drive.
An IFTTT account.
Connect the Maker and Google Drive channels to your IFTTT account.
Usage
cd into the tstats directory and edit the script with your IFTTT secret key, your IFTTT trigger event name and your Twitter screen name. Make the script executable with:
chmod +x tstats.sh
Then simply run it with:
./tstats.sh
If you receive a „Congratulations“ message and an entry is added to your spread sheet, you can go ahead and add it to your cron to run at a predetermined time.
To have this script run every 24 hours, add this to your crontab (you may need to change the path):
