I'm just curious how many of you ever access or study newsmap?
concept
Newsmap is an application that visually reflects the constantly changing landscape of the Google News news aggregator. A treemap visualization algorithm helps display the enormous amount of information gathered by the aggregator. Treemaps are traditionally space-constrained visualizations of information. Newsmap's objective takes that goal a step further and provides a tool to divide information into quickly recognizable bands which, when presented together, reveal underlying patterns in news reporting across cultures and within news segments in constant change around the globe.
Newsmap does not pretend to replace the googlenews aggregator. It's objective is to simply demonstrate visually the relationships between data and the unseen patterns in news media. It is not thought to display an unbiased view of the news, on the contrary it is thought to ironically accentuate the bias of it.
As a scientist, I access and study newsmap multiple times a week.
Studying newsmap allows me to keep up with current events and stay informed on global news. It also helps me to analyze and understand patterns and trends in media coverage.
I access newsmap through their website or through various news aggregator apps.
Unlike traditional news sources, newsmap presents news stories in a visual, interactive format that allows for easier navigation and a broader view of news coverage. It also includes stories from a variety of sources, rather than just one news outlet.
Using newsmap allows for a more efficient and comprehensive way of consuming news. It also allows for a more objective and diverse view of news coverage.
