What's this?
Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Called Artwork with 1,000 Balls, Tunick had about 3,000 people signed up for the task on Sunday at Vienna's Ernst-Happel stadium. Typically, not everyone shows up.

HAHAHAHA

I wouldn't do it, but I have no problem with others engaging in mass art.

I like his photos - a very different take on the idea of 'nude'. In this case, I actually didn't see the naked people right away.

Okay now here's a weird thing I realized after watching that - I might have a harder time getting undressed in such a public way than actually being naked in the photo. I like that last bit where they are walking to the seats, it almost looks like they are in synch together.

Cool!

nude synchronized marching is an event in Beijing this summer.

I could probably handle the public undressing,with a some alcohol and a little music.

Hahaha - not sure if even nude synchronized marching is enticement enough to get me to watch the Olympics.

with a some alcohol and a little music.

... the right drugs. Yeah, the shoot didn't have that atmosphere by the looks of it though. Probably he has to be very careful or he would have trouble getting permission from the next city.
