Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

Is anyone suppressed by this? We have an overzealous government, which, in trying to protect its citizens, ends up hurting them even more.

This is old news. We argued this before that wrong people are not neccesarily on the list but their names are the same or similar to those that are. Must be a slow day at the AP.

The list also contains the names of 14 of the 19 alleged hijacker from 9/11, and Saddam Hussein...

Bush war on Terror, the most money you can spend to lose the greatest amount of freedom with no measurable effectiveness.

"This just in, mass ammounts of people are disappearing from the streets of major cities through the United States. There have been no sign of the missing people in hospitals or by law enforcement officials. Some speculate this may be connected to the recently passed legislation regarding the removal of the right of Habeas Corpus for suspected terrorist threats and others, however the White House has yet to comment. The current estimates range from 30,000-35,000 missing."

Next week's news maybe?
