NYT Times Wire widget for Firefox

Recently, in the advanced CC lab, we experimented with Mozilla JetPack, which is simple scripts for Firefox widgets.

With JetPack, I made Times Wire headline visualizer with Times Wire API.
You can see flowing headlines on the status bar of Firefox and you can click the title to open the article page into new tab of Firefox.

Times Wire

dong-yoon — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 06:45:02 +0000

This visualization was intended to provide the feeling of flipping newspaper, to make people more comfortable with screen. I located section data on the top of the paper so that user can find favorite section first, then user can grasp the headline. I tried to design this visualization can be used with touch screen display, in home information system.
Made with Flash AS3.0, Papervision 3D

This visualization utilizes colors to categorize the sections, and articles are stacked up chronologically. I also tried to use saturation to visualize the time of the article however, it makes somewhat ambiguous color scheme for section categorization.

Data viz inspiration – How Different Groups Spend Their Day

This is an interactive data visualization on New York Times – visualizing the time consumption of people in groups. First of all, the stacked shapes of graph and simple buttons attracted me to easily get involved – visual attraction for interaction which I think very important. Second, the basic interactive actions – the transition between groups – work smoothly which made me stay longer. Especially, delicate and interesting detail information tracking the mouse cursor makes more exploration of this graph. It is good way to reveal the detail and specific data by mouse-over than mouse-click, layering the information with user interaction. In terms of visualization, and Data-Ink, I think this follows fundamental principles well, the grid on the background is dim enough to not disturbing my eyes from concentrating on main data elements. It is an intriguing interactive data visualization work, not that complicated, simple interactions with interesting stories.
