  • Abstract
    We present a demo that shows Twitter hashtag usage in Egypt from the angle of Islamist vs. secular polarization. The demo not only provides insights about current events in Egypt, but also reveals differences in attitudes of the two political camps with respect to major events abroad. The demo is publicly accessible at http://sc1.qcri.org/twitter/egypt/weekly/.
