Visualization as social space

More than the extend use of video or TV over the web, the future in Internet for me is in collaborative data visualization.
Few examples:
* Wikinvest has a feature called Wikicharts which allows users to share annotations on financial charts.Wikinvest's chart is extremely well executed and features customary dynamic axis and multiple time ranges, as well as their own additions for user-submitted annotations. Graphical annotation of chart is also explored in Berkeley project Sense.us and by IBM in Many Eyes technology (create your visual representation of data and information here : http://vizlab.nytimes.com/ )
* Kaltura is built on the collaborative Wiki model but uses media rather than text. Sites can add video capabilities using Kaltura's hosted services, download the open source community edition, or install self-serve video packages for web-platforms such as MediaWiki, WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, etc.
Using Kaltura's technology, users can create videos by combining existing uploaded media from sharing sites such as MySpace or YouTube with CreativeCommons or public domain sources such as Flickr, ccMixter, Jamendo, and The New York Public Library.[2] Media that can then be embedded and played elsewhere on the Internet.

Eyes wide open

Here is an example of the effort made in the area of visualization. How information (and not only figures) which means connections, words, objects should be showed up to one's eyes to become valuable, useful for others, managable...Visualcomplexity website shows a wide variety of this trend and ManyEyes offers us the possibility to play and create visualizations. For Art have a look to Quayola

Fractal Art Pictures

Picture is art but maybe more when it comes from an abstract mathematical calculation. It is just like adding two genuine arts.

Juggling with data

One of my twitter fellow this week posted "Futur of web is video". This is an interesting question as far as images refer to our emotions and words to arguments (in french we say: "the weight of words, the impact of a picture). On the other hand a good picture could give a better explanation than a whole page of howto. I'm not sure of the future of the web but I really hope to experience as soon as possible juggling with data and typing the keyboard "in the air" as Jeff Han!
