Hi, thanks for posting this! Was just going to post myself to ask for feedback.<p>Twingly Liveboard is an HTML5 web app aggregating users, mentions, hashtags, links etc in everything posted on Twitter in a combination of search terms.<p>Far from all of the stats gathered is so far displayed in the app, but I think it's a good start.<p>The app utilizes Orbited for realtime transport/Comet. The backend is in Python.<p>The app was made especially with iPad in mind, but text rendering on canvas doesn't seem to work right on iPad so all text is actually absolute-positioned div elements on top of the canvases. The diagrams are made from scratch on &#60;canvas&#62;, no libraries are involved.<p>It as an awesome experience doing the diagrams from scratch instead of using a lib, I can really recommend this if you have a few extra days to spend. It gives an uncomparable freedom to invent new ways of visualizing the data.<p>Anyway, if there are any questions I'll be happy to answer them, and feedback is very much appreciated!
