#Work out which accelerators/cohort cos we are missing timing info for
#Do a new Google Crawl

==Current Work==
Note that TFTRTA-AcceleratorFinal.txt in E:\projects\accelerators was updated to included all creation dates and dead dates. This is not reflected below, except that the script had it its load SQL updated too.
===Load the existing data===
Dbase is '''accelerators'''
The timing files were processed and their data was assembled. The stack starts with Attended (12896 obs, 7044 with year and 6493 with year and quarter) and sequentially adds timing information until the last table, Attended5 (15460 obs, 10446 with year and 9871 with year and quarter), is produced. With the exception of timing2, each timing file added new cohort cos. Timing1 and timing5 had evidence URLs (total of just 248 distinct).
===New Pull=== Made tables:*TheMissing, 129 accs missing total of 4979 cohort cos*ThePresent, 153 accs with total of 10446 cohort cos*ThePresentByYear, 601 acc years*TheReview, 475 acc years -> "TheReview.txt" TheReview.txt was then processed into SearchTerms.txt in E:\projects\accelerators\Google: Accelerator SearchTerm Year After some experimentation, we decided to add the following keywords to every search: demo day graduation pitch competition cohort We fixed up and ran E:\projects\accelerators\Google\DemoDayCrawler.py This script was based on E:\mcnair\Software\Accelerators\DemoDayCrawler.py, rather than the more recent E:\mcnair\Projects\Accelerator Demo Day\Test Run\STEP1_crawl.py The next step output is :*E:\projects\accelerators\Google\Results.txt 2515*E:\projects\accelerators\Google\Results folder containing html Previously run Google search results are in: *5 results per accelerator -- E:\mcnair\Software\Accelerators\demoday_crawl_full.txt 2777*10 results per accelerator -- E:\mcnair\Projects\Accelerator Demo Day\Test Run\demoday_crawl_full_from_testrun.txt 4351*10 results per select accelerator year -- E:\mcnair\Projects\Accelerator Demo Day\Test Run\demoday_crawl_full.txt 1230 These were all copied to figure out Z:\accelerators and cleaned up, and loaded along with the old process new Results.txt into '''accelerators'''. The SQL is in E:\projects\accelerators\LoadAcceleratorTables.sql It looks like 2340/2514 of retrieving, classifying, and turking demo day our pagesare new... ====Other info==== Found the following list of accelerators by accident: https://www.s-b-z.com/FORMING%20THE%20BUSINESS/db/accelerators.aspx
===To do===
Still to do:
#Re-train the classifier
#Run the classifier on the Google results
