A screenshot of the fifth sketch.

Root Markets: Sketch Five

The first in a series of interactive sketches that explore different ways of presenting browser history data.

Squares represent the number of clicks to each domain a set of data; one click = one pixel (of the length of each side of the square). Color bands in a square represent unique pages accessed within the domain. Roll over a band to see the URL of the page it represents. The label below each square shows the domain along with the number of clicks and unique pages it contains. Limited to the 2500 most recent clicks. Click and drag to scroll.

Root Markets: Sketch Seven

The second in a series of interactive sketches that explore different ways of presenting browser history data.

A timeline with arcs connecting all the clicks of a portion of the most-visited hosts. Limited to the past 10 days worth of clicks. Click the links below the timeline to hide and show arcs.

A screenshot of the ninth sketch.

Root Markets: Sketch Nine

The third in a series of interactive sketches that explore different ways of presenting browser history data.

Similar to the previous piece, except that visits have been re-defined as multiple clicks to the same domain within a time span (now 10 minutes) even if clicks to other domains happen in between. This means that page visits can overlap. Click the links below the timeline to hide and show arcs. Roll over the links or the arcs to identify them.
