Swarm - A New Way To Browse the Web and Find the Most Interesting Sites http://www.swarmthe.com/
Swarm shows you what websites people are visiting, right now. Swarm is a graphical map of hundreds of websites, all connecting to each other. It updates itself every second with where people are going and coming from. As sites become more popular, they move towards the center of the swarm. Website traffic is symbolized with thin lines. Each time you see a line appear, it means someone has moved from one site to the other. You can gauge how many people are swarming around based on the number of lines. Swarm is a useful tool for browsing the web, not searching it. You need to visit the site with an open mind and you may find some really cool stuff. This has been added to the tools section of Research Resources Subject Tracerâ„¢ Information Blog.
