Atlantic Yards 'Neighborhood Buzz' Map

Outside.In has produced an animated map of neighborhood buzz, projected over both time and space. The map tracks the the neighborhood hotspots in the Flatbush/Atlantic Avenue area of Brooklyn that people have been talking about online for the past six months.

It's fascinating to watch the ebb and flow of coverage by both bloggers and mainstream media.

The larger the icons, the more conversations about the place. Each circle represents the ratio of coverage by local bloggers (in orange) to the mainstream media (in gray.)
