Abstract

There is a growing trend of enabling users to view diverse sources of data in an integrated manner, called visual mashups. This paper addresses the problem of how to visualize diverse data sources in a single integrated display when geographical meta-data is not available or advisable to use to combine the data sources. A visual mashup of web, image, video, news, blog and tagging search results is introduced. The presented solution makes it possible to visualize relationships between the different data sources, which would be difficult to show in a series of mini-displays arranged in a grid layout.
