My name's Szymon Rutkowski. I am interested in democratizing tools
for understanding big flows of words.
Currently my main project is ActualScan. It's a search engine where users can crawl together
the websites that interest them and then apply various analyses to the collected index.
(Currently in alpha testing.)
Own sites
- ActualScan (English) - an analytic search engine with social indexing that I'm building
- Ciesiołka Znaków (Polish) - my old blog mainly about applications of lingustics (word morphology) and machine learning in language processing
- The Old Republic (English, Polish) - explorations into controversies, ideologies and political debates in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, before 1795
