So how are you feeling?
Every so often, we get alerted to a great website*, one which deserves a wider audience. It is one of the selling points of iPM: let us know, and we'll let the rest of the world know.
One such website is We Feel Fine.
It starts from the simple premise that the phrase "I feel..." or "I'm feeling..." is extremely common in blogs and websites, which are often very personal creations.
By searching for those two phrases on websites like MySpace, Flickr, Technorati, Ice Rocket, and Google, this website builds up a picture of how people are feeling, all over the world.
It's searchable, so if you feel like finding out how 40-49 year old women in Sydney are feeling right now, it can do that.
(I'm looking forward to finding out how people in Weston-super-mare are feeling today...)
Click on the image below, and you'll be taken to their website.
But only if you feel like it.
(be aware that the website is data-heavy so it may take some time to load up...and the BBC is not responsible for any content contained on it)
*Like buses, you wait ages to be told about great websites, and then two come along at once.
Flowing Data is a website devoted to making information more "visual". Click on the above, which shows the growth of Walmart across America....and then "feel free" to explore further.

Hi
I am one puzzled penguin. Why would you want to know how people you don't know are feeling? Is this yet another symptom of our I'd rather live in cyberspace society?
As for the visual representation of the growth of Walmart across America... it has left me speechless.
No wonder so many companies are making a money out of telling us how to 'engage with stakeholders' or 'coach your staff' - it's all based on talking to one another, regularly and more importantly listening to what is said. And if you're wondering why I am here writing instead of talking it's because I haven't got anyone to talk to (other than myself) at the moment.
