Jacob, Jasmine, etc,, That software looks great! But expensive! I wonder if there is a cheaper alternative? (I'm working with the same type of data) Otherwise, we the multipronged approach has been the best I've encountered: text file + screen shot + html file Thanks, Casey On Mon, Jan 21, 2013 at 10:57 PM, Jacob Groshek <jgroshek@gmail.com> wrote:
I highly recommend Discovertext. http://discovertext.com/
Easy to use, good tech support if/when you need it. Built in coding system. Also can export to spreadsheet (if necessary) with subscription.
Best,
Jacob

Hello All,
I'm looking for ideas on the best software to use for comment scraping. I plan on doing quantitative content and qualitative textual analysis on the comments connected to an article on an online pubulication. The publication uses Disqus for comments, and ideally I'd like a program that would maintain the integrity of the comment relationships. Any and all ideas are appreciated.
Thanks,
JM
