Visualizing Color Names #
Remember this? Well, people have been working on ways to revisualize the color names that Dolores Lab crowd-sourced. Color Flower is my favorite, but the others are nice too.
Google Not Much Better than MSN, Yahoo #
That’s what the folks over at Dolores Labs found. Obviously this is contrary to conventional wisdom, but it seems reasonable enough to me.
Reading Faces #
Dolores Labs is quickly becoming the go-to source for entertaining data that I’m not comfortable calling science. Another example: they’ve asked people to judge faces by age, politics, and intelligence. They present the pictures as they were rated along those axes.
Crowdsourcing Media Bias #
The same people who brought you crowdsourced color names, have crowdsourced the evaluation of media bias. Their results look interesting, even if I’m not sure they’re trustworthy. (It appears they let people know the source of the story, which could very well change their perception of that story’s bias.)
