Ouch and bravo. Some of you know I’ve been crawling and working toward an emotional mapping system for blogs. Someone beat me to it! Check out We Feel Fine. It scrapes text that starts “I feel” and counts up the feelings that follow. Good stuff.
Not enough to kill my work: I have a few more tricks that might be interesting. But a cool application. And kudos go to them for opening up the API right off the bat: lots of interesting things that could be mixed with that data.

Let’s not forget that they made it pretty enough for anyone to use. Not only is their ability to gather data decent, but their ability to pretty animated infomaps in a logical and fun manner should win it some design award if any!
Not sure if you will allow this but will you tell people about my website: My1Hope.com
My website http://www.my1hope.com was originally designed for people throughout the world to share hopeful words–however, women started posting things of concern and before I realized what was happening, it became a place where women could share words of encouragement. The site is 60-days old… and thousands of people (mostly women) have posted words of encouragement that range from… Domestic Abuse (Physical, Sexual, and Mental) to struggles of being molested/raped as a child… Long story short it is a place of hope… or a vessel to reach others and let them know they are not alone…in their struggle.
Therefore, I am asking the Online Community to give 30 seconds of their life and write something that might help someone else… Once you go to the site? Click the Stars (You will B Pleasantly Surprized).
