  Small experiment of visualization of wikipedia articles as a graph using d3.js.

  Articles with more traffic are bigger. I computed the semantic similarity using LSI with python (gensim) You have to scroll down/right a bit!

  There is also a JSON api: http://similarityapi.appspot.com/api/v1/?limit=100&title...

  All feedback is appreciated:

  I've never liked these scrolling animations. You need too much precision to see a part of the page clearly, while with normal scrolling it wouldn't matter if the information you're reading is at the bottom or top of the screen.

  Does the font size for a node represent it's similarity with the query page?
