A new way to display news is newsmap. Newsmap is an application that reflects the changing landscape of google news. It makes use of Treemap visualization algorithm. Basically, treemapping is a method for displaying tree structured data by using nested rectangles. A treemap visualization algorithm here makes use of aggregator. This aggregator gathers news from several resources.
Newsmap divides information into easily recognizable bands, which when presented together represent the clusters of information relating to particular area, region or culture. A great example would be Google News that makes use of newsmap and automatically groups news stories with similar content and places them based on algorithmic results into clusters. In Newsmap, the size of each cell is determined by the amount of related articles that exists inside each news cluster that the Google News Aggregator presents.It could be viewed at http://newsmap.jp/
