Gothamberg by MW2MW
There is a new project from MW2MW called Gothamberg. MW2MW is a collaboration between Marek Walczak and Martin Wattenberg. Started in 1997, both artists work independently but come together on long term projects such as Apartment, Wonderwalker, Thinking Machine and Noplace. Regarding the project of Gothamberg:
Everyone who has lived in an apartment has a story to tell. Gothamberg is a place to read, interact and exchange stories of lives in apartment buildings. Together, these tales of sounds and smells, lobbies and bathrooms, laundry room gossip and unexpected favors form a single collective building, Gothamberg. Their experiences form the elliptical threads of inhabitation, a mnemonic quality expressing something of the shared nature of dwelling.
Other than this one, for my personal taste their history flow was one of the greatest projects in information visualization area.

Cool app. I realized that it’s a new face of web information exchanges, maybe called near future search engines

I am not sure that we will see these kind of applications for search engines. At least in the near future, however, there are some applications for word browsing such as http://www.visuwords.com/
