VisitorVille Represents Web Traffic As Virtual City
posted by Editor on Wednesday June 21, @05:59PM
Data Visualization VisitorVille uses a 3D virtual world interface for analyzing web traffic data. Rather than representing web site visitors as numbers or graphs, it visualizes traffic as real people in an urban environment. You can monitor your site traffic as if you were people-watching in a big city (see screenshots). Each web site is represented as a building and you can walk inside buildings to see who is visiting the site and initiate chats with them. Buses represent search engines, which deliver visitors to the web site. The interface requires authors to insert a snippet of code into their web pages.

    wow - the graphics lots great and it sure looks like someone did a lot of work. It looks game quality. Not sure on the practically of it. I'm not a big fan of virtual worlds, but some virtual worlds seem to be growing in popularity. Thats my 2 cents -- www.hciLogic.com

    I'm not a robot like you. I don't like having disks crammed into me... unless they're Oreos, and then only in the mouth. -- Fry
