We Feel Fine is really, really, really cool.
The interface to this data is a self-organizing particle system,
where each particle represents a single feeling posted by a single
individual. The particles’ properties - color, size, shape, opacity -
indicate the nature of the feeling inside, and any particle can be
clicked to reveal the full sentence or photograph it contains. The
quote can then be clicked to go back to the blog entry where it
originally appeared.The result is a database of several million human feelings, increasing by 15,000 - 20,000 new feelings per day.
I followed like 8 links, (I’m pretty bored.) a lot of the blogs end up to be pretty emo-ish, but it’s still really interesting, and yet another thing to add to my time consuming internet activities.
