The Dumpster



This is The Dumpster:

"The Dumpster" is an interactive online visualization that attempts to
depict a slice through the romantic lives of American teenagers. Using
real postings extracted from millions of online blogs, visitors to the
project can surf through tens of thousands of specific romantic
relationships in which one person has "dumped" another. The project's
graphical tools reveal the astonishing similarities, unique differences,
and underlying patterns of these failed relationships, providing both
peculiarly analytic and sympathetically intimate perspectives onto the
diversity of global romantic pain."

It is a nice interface as well. Fluid, tactile and with emotive colors, just like breaking up :-(
