Hello stagas. What is your technical skill with javascript. I have a idea that needs more polish, but I think it would make a great open source library and I could use it in my job. It's a visualization tool that I saw a Google tech talk about a few months ago. I have not had time to sit down and code for it, but if it was available, I would sure use it.

Hello EastCoastLA. I would say I am advanced in Javascript. Please email me with the details so I can check it out.

  I am interested in use of data visualization of information that has an endpoint of simple dynamic well known picture/image. Every item in the picture is linked to the data. Imagine a picture of a harbor with boats, calm water, clear sky,etc.. (Still looking for the specific tech talk) Every distinct visual category in the picture should have a distinct data link. I would model it in the same way as Protovis http://vis.stanford.edu/protovis/ http://vis.stanford.edu/protovis/ But with pictures linked to the data.

    Protovis pretty much covers everything, from what I can see. What you're looking for (I think) is an implementation on some specific data you have, mapped to hyperlinks from Wikipedia or similar? Please correct me if I didn't understand correctly or elaborate a bit.

      Protovis is very close, but imagine one of the digital frames you put pictures in. The date dynamically creates the one image. Each element of the picture might represent a data element I feel is important. The javascript API will allow me to select the picture which could be a landscape or water-scape or mountain scape. The data can be encoded in JSON. The user could look at the image and have a visual representation of the data in a familiar format.
