Rhizosphere is an innovative approach to help you navigate and filter through your data. Lightweight, web-based, intuitive, its purpose is to provide a simple but effective way to flow through your data, isolate them, filter them and help you locate that information that you know it's there, but it's lost amidst the noise. 100% pure HTML and JS, no Flash, no Java, no Silverlight, no plugins. You just need your browser. The Rhizosphere project focuses both on traditional and innovative ways to browse through data: * A desktop like metaphor, with Selections and Drag'n'Drop * Endless Desktop (like Google Maps scrolling) * Zooming * Dynamic Filtering * Data layouting * Data fetching and remoting * Interoperability with multiple sources * Color coding and information clouds The project focuses on merging together the benefits of the desktop metaphor with the ubiquity and flexibilty of a web based approach. Rhizosphere integrates with other technologies and can be used to navigate your data inside Google Docs and Google Gadgets.

Hundreds of thousands of emails are sent every second, and yet, you wouldn't really know it because there aren't public-facing streams like that of Twitter. Outside your own inbox, how much email is there exactly? Yahoo, in collaboration with information visualization firm Periscopic, shows you how much email they process in real-time with this interactive feature. The initial view is a world map, and scaled bubbles represent how many emails were currently sent. Hover over continents for user geographic distribution and gigabytes sent. There's also trending topics from anonymized subject headers via streamgraph. The view is interesting as you can click on sections so that the surrounding streams split, so you get a sense of distribution along with details per keyword. The keyword data, however, isn't all that interesting for the most part. You'll see keywords such as online, free, and nights. Not too meaningful. There are a few exceptions though like Oprah and wars. There is also an option to include spam keywords with equally generic terms. Finally, if you go back to the map and keep on clicking, you eventually get to some fun facts about email, such as there are over sextillion ways to spell Viagra. All in all, it's a comprehensive view of how much email Yahoo handles that's fun to poke around. Turn on your speakers for playful sound effects. via http://flowingdata.com/2011/10/13/visualizing-yahoo-email-processing-in-real-time/
