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.

If I had any faith that the students actually understood the concepts and were just being funny, I'd feel better laughing so hard at that. Now, I just want to curl up in a ball and cry because these are the people who will look over me during my retirement someday. That, or they'll serve me milkshakes on Wednesday afternoons.

I'm guessing some of them were just taking the piss. I know I did on class tests sometimes. :)

Loved 'em.

that root 2 over 2 certainly seemed to be... the first one though I think is real.

dam I just got wind of this seed and the link is broken (the target page is lost). I didn't get to see the root 2 one mentioned

I got to see a few of the others on another newsvine article - the find x one is hilarious!
