Facts unchecked

I adore this site. factunchecked

Well ok not the site as much as the idea. It is so easy to publish a thought, fact or idea online. Then to engage in that fact or idea only to find out that the publisher did nothing to confirm the fact or research the idea.

The transient nature of blogs, sites etc makes it very easy to publish anything, say anything, offend and even disgust a user. Before anyone re-acts to this post No, nope, no way, not a chance would I agree with censorship.

I believe the individual user of the channel be it a blog or a radio station etc can decide for themselves and censor the media by changing and or switching off the feed.

Perhaps this is a lesson in questioning the norm and poking at the embers of lowest common denominators.

Lets all start asking why, how and when and perhaps the side effect will be a movement away from the mass and an embracement of the unique, the special and the undiscovered

Sea of Thought



Sea of Thought is a tool we've developed that searches blogs, twitter and various other sources for the words 'I think'. View by user defined searches, by date or simply live thoughts in four different views.

'Sea Scape' submerges you in an ocean of thought. Dive, swim and explore the depths within. 'Globe View' shows the world’s thoughts mapped onto a 3D globe. 'Map View' shows thoughts on a 2D map. 'Time Tunnel' allows the user to travel through time and find out who was thinking what, and when!

It was originally released to our clients as a xmas play thing, but is now in the public domain for all to enjoy!
