This looks awesome. Next step is to make it "real-time."
I worked for an analytics company and got to build some pretty awesome visualizations using D3 and one of the problems I always ran into was that while the visualizations are cool, you rarely get any actionable information from the charts. I feel like this would be a lot better if at the end, there was some call to action.
- minimaxir 13y agoReal time analytics is tricky due to API limits. (unless you can accept a "real time" of minutes/hours per update) Example: Twitter's search API is limited to 15 queries of 100 Tweets every 15 minutes. Do you query 100 Tweets every minute, or 1500 Tweets every 15 minutes?
- jaredsohn 13y agoOne other challenge is that some of the presentation (especially portions of the front page) isn't data-driven. It can be tricky to figure out which information to highlight, what the clustering topics should be, etc.
- babs474 13y agoI've got an experimental, realtime comment search engine over at commentfindder.com. Perhaps some useful visualizations could be created off of it. Do you have any ideas for what kind of actionable chart would be interesting?
