Feedback: Will a chrome extension like this be useful?
Idea: turn anything you see on the web into sharable story in a few mouse clicks.
Purpose: everyone is "creative", help them turn anything they see on the web into a great story sharing with others.
Prototype Demo: https://youtu.be/k-PLM5M_h_w
(note: could start with structured data, possibly employ AI to extract unstructured data for analysis in future)
Ask:
1. Is this idea worth further development?
2. Have you seen any potential use cases of it?
3. Are you interested in trying it when MVP/v1 is ready? If yes, would you like to share your email for contact.
Appreciate any comments/feedback, it helps me to decide what to build, reach out cao@columns.ai
- chickenmonkey 5y agoReally cool. A potential use I can see for this is to help people go from raw data to visuals really quickly. I'm guessing that's the intended use. I wonder how your extension will handle scenarios with unclean data, however. What if the state labels were irregular?
- caoxhua 5y agoThank you for your feedback, appreciate it! yes - for simple, we can call it Pinterest for data stories. I haven't thought about that problem of unclean data yet, right now as prototype, the map module drops the unmatched entry after trying to identifying it as state (full or short names), county names, zip code, etc. In the future, editing distance might help improve matching.
