  • Abstract
    This paper describes a web system for supporting a school event using Twitter. This system collects messages related to a school event from Twitter and shows them in a various way. And it has a function for non-Twitter users to post a message with a specific tag to Twitter. Last year, we built a prototype system and provided it for our school festival. This paper shows the overview of our system, the experimental results and the discussion of result. Additionally, two new functions to increase the number of users and our future plans to evaluate our system are also presented.
