Worldchill

While entire television networks have been created to follow the weather and the economy, no one is measuring the way the world actually feels.

But this is every bit as important as the latest barometric pressure, or the current Nikkei average. Imagine if you knew a calm-front was moving through Kuala Lumpur? Or there were scattered stress storms in Kansas City? Imagine if they knew how people were feeling in your neck of the woods? At Worldchill, you can witness how the world’s chill level evolves in real time, and add your own input to the greater chill.

This is produced by Coca-Cola, therefore it is advertising, but some good data visualization nonetheless.
