Here's how to tell if you're yelling at a bot on Twitter

There is perhaps no more worthlessly modern pastime than yelling at a politicized bot on Twitter, so it's fortunate that a pair of students at the University of California, Berkeley, have built a tool to help us figure out which propaganda-spewing accounts aren't real.

Rohan Phadte and Ash Bhat, founders of Robhat Labs (solid name choice), built a site called botcheck.me. First reported by Wired, their creation lets users type in a Twitter handle, and from there it'll tell you whether that account does a lot of things that indicate it's probably a bot.
