title: R: How to save lists into csv?
body: <p>So im actually working on twitteR and i need a way to store my tweets into a csv file and pull it out when i need it . This is due to the idea i want to compile the tweets i collect and then apply them to my algorithms to do the calculations later.
  So , i thought of trying </p>
  
  <pre><code>            write.csv(tweets, file = "newfile", row.names = TRUE, sep = ',', col.names = TRUE)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>which only works if create a data frame tho :/ .
  The tweets that i collect looks like this </p>
  
  <pre><code> [[1]]
   [1] "anonymous: boring!"
  
   [[2]]
   [1] "anonymous: random message !"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>....
  ......</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>Edited:  my str(tweets)  this is just 3 tweets i just pulled out</p>
