Yahoo Live Visualizations

May 9th, 2008 by nikhilb

I recommend going to Vimeo so you can watch these in HD and see more details.

These are two visualizations I did of a few days activity on Yahoo Live, Yahoo’s lifecasting/videochat service. On the first one the horizontal axis represents time, and the vertical axis is number of viewers. It is very information dense, so blow it up to full screen and watch a few times; you may see some interesting patterns. A shout out to Phil Pearson for his help with some of the finishing touches.

This one is a collage showing all the simultaneous channels at once. If you watch carefully you can notice that there are fewer broadcasts at night and more in the morning. You might also catch a glimpse of morning light and evening darkness.

Check out this Lego short of Spider Man vs. Doctor Octopus. Great stop motion, and very exciting considering it is about four minutes long.
