10×10: The words and pictures of right now

10x10
These are interesting times with events around the world being reported and visually told via online news sources at an astonishing pace. 10×10 is an interactive exploration of the words and pictures that define the zeitgeist of the moment. Each hour the site scens RSS feeds of international news sources and creates a 10 x 10 grid using pictures and text of leading stories. It’s a creative and dizzying approach to data visualization that captures what the world is talking about at the moment. This is the site that inspired Yahoo!’s Netrospective: 10 Years, 100 Moments and won the 2005 Webby Award for Best Structure and Navigation. Spend some time on it and try not to feel humble.
