NYT Cascade visualization
- blatherard 15y agoJer Thorp is the guy who built the visualization tool. He also designed a tool to help layout the names on the 9/11 memorial. He's got other interesting stuff at his blog, http://blog.blprnt.com/ http://blog.blprnt.com/

- donohoe 15y agoThey have this installed on the 28th floor by the elevator bank over 4 or so large screens. Its pretty damn awesome. You can access it via your iPhone on the network and control it. I wish I'd had a chance to play with it more.
- mattdeboard 15y agoThis could be a Very Big Deal in the Marketing/PR 'industry' where it is extremely difficult to quantify performance of PR departments and individuals. I can easily envision a "Cascade score" of a particular press release or press conference being a hard metric of influence & success. If I was running a PR department or agency, I'd want this application as soon as possible, at any practical price.
- janesvilleseo 15y agoYes this tool could be very helpful to many. I could see it working very nicely with Klout. And taking it a step further sales departments could use this info to see who their 'target' is influenced, which could be very helpful as well.
