Visualizing Political Bias with Greasemonkey – Waxy.org
A little technically complicated to install, but this filter is an example of the kind of crap-detection/information-evaluation filters that the infotentive will be able to use as filter-tech becomes more user-friendly — Howard
“With the help of del.icio.us founder Joshua Schachter, we used a recommendation algorithm to score every blog on Memeorandum based on their linking activity in the last three months. Then I wrote a Greasemonkey script to pull that information out of Google Spreadsheets, and colorize Memeorandum on-the-fly. Left-leaning blogs are blue and right-leaning blogs are red, with darker colors representing strong biases. Check out the screenshot below, and install the Greasemonkey script or standalone Firefox extension to try it yourself.”
