Newsmap

Newsmap is a very different type of Ajax application. It is a treemap based on the Google News aggregator. It takes a little getting used to, but it is very easy to see the biggest news stories (pun intended). Clicking on a story will open up the news source in a new window.
Categories are color coded included World, Business, Technology, Sports, Entertainment and Health. A legend allows the user to turn on and off their preferred categories.
There is also an excellent time based legend allowing you to select a timeframe over the last week available in Newsmap.

A Different View of the News


Found an interesting visual news aggregator called Newsmap Based on the Google news aggregator it assembles news live, as it happens, and can be viewed in a number of different formats. I will let the creator explain how it works--I'm not sure I could adequately describe how a "treemap visualization algorithm" functions. Newsmap is an application that visually reflects the constantly changing landscape of the Google News news aggregator. A treemap visualization algorithm helps display the enorm

I siti più utili


Forse tutti avranno letto l’articolo di Repubblica.it che parlava della ricerca fatta dal Telegraph sui 101 siti più utili del web, ovviamente più utili per gli inglesi in quanto alcuni di questi trattano questioni tipicamente britanniche, ma a noi non ce ne frega niente, perché la classifica è comunque uno spunto interessante per scoprire nuovi siti! Ovviamente l primo posto c’è Google con tutti i suoi figli, e siti come Wikipedia, Facebook e Viamichelin, ma ho trovato anche siti divertenti:


Newsmap: Providing Perspecive

Orientarsi nell'informazione


Orientarsi nell'informazione Come vi sarete accorti dai post precedenti quello che più mi incanta del nuovo web è creare nuove cose senza inventare nulla; prendere pezzi esistenti, rielaborarli, ridefinirli anche solo re-impaginarli in maniera creativa. Pensare nuove forme comunicative usandone diverse già esistenti e funzionanti.
