Visualization of Blogs
Anjo is doing some very interesting work on Visually representing blogs. The picture to the left (click to enlarge) is a partial visualization of Scobleizer over a year. Anjo describes what you’re looking at by writing:
• Size of a blob is determined by the number of words in the post. Bigger blob, more words (in fact: every pixel represents one word).
• Colour of the blob is determined by whether there are links to others (grey), links from others (green) or no links (red). All with respect to a community of KM bloggers determined by Lilia and Stephanie
It is an interesting first implementation of this visualization system – well worth checking out. Read the rest here. I’ll be interested to see what else emerges.
