Newsmap is an application that visually demonstrates the constantly changing landscape of the “Google News” news aggregator.
The more frequently a story is reported in the news, the larger it becomes in the “map”.
It is also possible to compare different countries, and to see which elements are given more coverage in those countries. You can view the map by region, topic, or time.
A fascinating, and discussion provoking, tool.
As well as our events, we like to share interesting, and more often than not, FREE tools, resources and ideas, some old, some new, and we hope you might find something useful. We'd love your thoughts. Tim & SarahEnter your email address below to receive updates each time we publish new content.
