Another neat gadget from VisWeek, this time from Rutgers University.  The Vox system compiles data from twitter and other sources, and plots it all in a timeline with some nice searching and filtering tools, creating a neat way to dig through public sentiment around an event.

Vox Event Analytics is a visual analytics system designed to help make sense of the social information stream related to news and other events. Vox is in a pre-alpha stage and we’d really like to get your feedback on the site and application: please contact Nick Diakopoulos at [email protected] with bug reports or other suggestions.
