# FTTZ (aka *Yet Another Stupid Idea™*)
*Find Twitter TimeZone.*
The idea is to approximate the timezone of a Twitter user using their last 200 tweets distribution throughout the day.
iex(1)> FTTZ.stats("twitter")
Most likely time offset is UTC-07:00
Tweet distribution throughout the day (at UTC±00:00):
00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23

:ok
It just counts the number of shifts required to make it look like most of the tweets were created during daytime (from 8:00AM until 8:00PM) at UTC±00:00.
It is pretty much useless. Inaccurate too. Also don't look at the code.
