Map your moves Data This map distills more than 4000 moves from over 1700 people, collected in an informal survey by WNYC, a New York based public radio station. For generating the geo–coordinates from the entered ZIP codes, I used the free bulk geocoder at gpsvisualizer.com. Mapping As most moves occurred from, to or within the New York area, this area displayed enlarged in the white circle at the center of the graphic. Visual markers Each circle corresponds to one zip code area. Actually, it is consists of two overlaid circles: a red one for people moving out of the area, and a blue one for people moving to the area. Interaction Click one of the circles to inspect only moves to or from this area. Details On the right, you can find some statistics on why and when people moved to the selected areas. You can directly compare the lengths of the red (for people moving away from the selected areas) and blue (for people moving to the selected areas) bars to spot trends and peculiarities.
OneRiot.com – Realtime Search for the Realtime Web A few weeks ago, a small team from @WalmartLabs visited the offices of OneRiot in beautiful Boulder, Colorado. OneRiot has developed some pretty nifty technology that analyzes social media signals from popular networks like Twitter and Facebook to deliver ads that are relevant to consumers’ interests. As our teams debated the finer points of Big Data, Fast Data, and machine learning technologies, it became clear to us that we could find no better colleagues than the guys at OneRiot. As a part of Walmart, we're continuing to work with the intensity of a technology startup. As I have written before, here at @WalmartLabs we’re doing some amazingly interesting and impactful work at the intersection of social, mobile, and retail. It gives me great pleasure to welcome Tobias Peggs and the OneRiot team to @WalmartLabs!

Zhao Jing's homepage Mapping God's Bloodline Follow the genealogy of Jesus from the creation of Adam and Eve through Noah, the tribes of Israel, King David, and finally Joseph and Mary. Zoom out for a broader perspective or zoom in to examine finer details. I began with some key genealogical information found on complete-bible-genealogy.com and am working on adding more detail available at marshallgenalogy.org. First attempt at visualization I made this using a tool called Gephi which is great for deep analysis of complex networks, especially social connections. Floaters – families which can’t be connected back to Adam and Eve None of this is to say that spouses, mothers, and “floater” families are unimportant. Straight Layout In many ways this defeats my original goal, which was to reduce the wasted space caused by traditional forms.
