About textbooks
This year, our main book will be Mining the Social Web, Second Edition (MTSW2e), see below. You will have to buy this one!
 
The book is very hands on and contains lots of detailed resources related to understanding APIs of social sites, etc. The book is essential for the exercises, but the lectures will not go over the book in details - instead they will provide a theoretical overview and counterpoint to the very practical approach contained in the book. (Do not get the first edition!)
