Observ o adevarata moda / nebunie / trend ascendent cu tot mai multe siteuri concepute ca o harta sau care se intituleaza si incearca abordari noi. Un exemplu ar fi Newsmap, un proiect conceput in anul 2004 care ofera intr-un mod vizual nou stiri, mai precis headlines de pe mapamond preluate din Google News.

Autorii il descriu insa cel mai bine: “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. Its 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. “
