Steve Kingsley Introducing CarbonTicker

Feb 15, 2009 06:27 pm

Over the years, I’ve been converted into a believer in sustainability by my publishing and business partners, Rao Kolluru (an environmental expert and author) and another author, June Marshall, who is into organic food, birding, and all things natural. (She is also my wife, so she has the inside track....)      While I find the evid... Continue reading Introducing CarbonTicker

I like the way the World Clock is working now.  And I believe that in order for a URL to be automatically converted to a link it needs to have the www. in front of it, not just the http://. I think that's why you original URL wasn't converted.

Eleanor, Thank you for checking out carbonticker.com! Question: Do you think we should keep the World Clock as is? Our plan is to show only the "Environment & Natural Resources" data, going back to the Medieval Warming Period, ca 1000-1400 AD. A little bug ... I understand URLs are supposed to be converted to links automatically in your story ... http://carbonticker.com didn't. I'm going to make it a link manually. Best, Steve

What a cool idea!  I checked out www.carbonticker.com and the sheer amount of data that was flowing before my eyes was incredible.  I found it particularly interesting to watch the births/death numbers change practically every millisecond.  It's one thing to read in a newspaper article that the world's population will grow by [this percent] by 2010, or [this amount] of forest will be lost by the end of 2009...but watching those numbers increase in real time puts a whole new spin on things.  Also, the Year, Month, Week, Day, Now tabs really put those numbers into perspective for you.  

Nice job. I look forward to watching this concept develop.
