SIOC Winners: Forum Activity Graph


Website: http://bigasterisk.com/boardsie/
Referenzsite: http://boards.ie/
Description:
Third prize was awarded to the “Forum Activity Graph” by Drew Perttula from California. This entry was a visualisation showing the popularity of forums on boards.ie as represented by coloured rivers of information, which were then rendered and displayed using Google Maps.

The image above is a stacked bar graph showing the popularity of the forums on the boards.ie bulletin board site. Each stripe is a forum on the site, and its height shows the number of posts in that forum over time.
For example, the thick green stripe in the middle shows the popularity of the 'After Hours' forum, which has been the most popular forum for several years.
