Sorry, Vista is currently not supported. Hope to fix this in some months.

UPDATE:

Danilo say:

By downloading the source files and compiling with Visual Studio 2008, I could make it work on Vista. If you want, I can provide you the exe file...

AMMINISTRATORI IN CONDOMINIO *
di Carlo Drago , Andrea Polo e Paolo Santella 06.12.2007
Nel periodo 1998-2006 la grande maggioranza delle società quotate italiane è stata collegata in un'unica rete attraverso una piccola minoranza di amministratori. Un gruppo, questo, che mostra grande stabilità nel tempo e con componenti che spesso appartengono alle stesse famiglie. Assai alto il grado di connettività per le blue chips e in particolare per quasi tutte le principali società bancarie e finanziarie. Negli ultimi anni tende a ridursi il numero dei collegamenti, ma non delle società coinvolte, con una maggiore centralità di Mediobanca. E la concorrenza?

A review of TREEPIE:

[..]But now there's a new contender called TreePie [4]. Basically, TreePie represents disk usage like a pizza with the size of each slice representing the space taken by each top level folder. Clicking a folder "slice" will then display a similar "pizza" breakdown of the sub-folders and files in that folder. It sounds complicated when I describe it but it's simple and intuitive in use.

It's also highly effective. Add to that the fact that it's also portable, has an alternative Windows explorer view and is free open source software and you have an easy "top product in class" recommendation.
My only complaint is its rather slow scan time. Still, this is not the kind of program you will be using everyday so a short delay is quite tolerable

UnfluenceBlog: "Sister project
November 26th, 2007
Great minds think alike. Marco Borgna just contacted us to tell us about a nice Java/prefuse application he built to show networks of contributions to US governors races using NIMSP data. Check it out at http://weshowthemoney.com/
A nice feature is that it is shows data combined for multiple states, so you can get a picture of the activity of unions and PACs at the national level.
Are there any similar projects showing EU data?"

Unfluence is a great project of visualization !

UPDATE 9.28 25/11/2007: first version application online. send comments ( and report bug bug@weshowthemoney.com )! :D

My friend Daniele Galiffa from Mentegrafica.it has pointed me to the data coming from Follow The Money a nonpartisan organization dedicated to documentation and research on campaign finance at the state level.

I have used for now only data about Governors elected in 2006 and used they top 100 donors.

Images here and in my photo blog are the results of my first attempt to show the data using the prefuse visualization library

I will release the applet to produce the images when ready :D .

Italian follows :)

Qui potete vedere cosa si può fare in America con i soldi.

Qui potete vedere che cosa succede tra i soldi e la politica in America.

Qui potete vedere l'America.

Abbiamo ricavato i nostri dati da Follow The Money e li abbiamo resi visibili.

Si vede l'ambiguità di chi finanzia indistintamente Repubblicani e Democratici.

Some tip for mac-os users:

Confessions of an Undercover Geek » Where did all my hard drive space go?:

"Where did all my hard drive space go?

Lately it seems like my hard drive space had been getting less and less.

On Friday, I was watching the latest episode of DL.tv. They talked about different tools you could use to visualize where the space was being taken up on your hard drive. The mac tool they talked about was Disk Inventory X. It is awesome.

It shows a rectangle and splits the rectangle up with different colors and boxes to show the different files that are taking up space on your hard drive. The tool makes it easy to go and clean out old files that are taking up space. I was able to successfully clean out a bunch of space on my hard drive.

This tool just works for Mac OS X. If you are a Windows users, there is SequoiaView and TreePie."

comment on treepie:

I went looking for software to search for large files and found that most of the “good stuff” is commercial. However, a fella in Italy has written a clever open source program called Treepie. At first glance you will look at the output and think “What the hell does THAT mean?” but once you start running your mouse over the output you will see how he’s organized things and it makes a lot of sense.

It’s not the fastest or the slickest program in the world, but it’s free and it gets the job done. It helped me find a folder off my root directory where I had forgotten to delete a number of ummm *cough* DVD images *cough*. Data, of course.

visualcomplexity.com | Musicovery: "Musicovery, by Frederic Vavrille, is an interactive webRadio, or if you want, an hybrid of two of the most compelling music services on the Internet, MusicPlasma and Pandora. Frederic Vavrille, creator of the discovery engine MusicPlasma, has just materialized my wish. Being an enthusiast of both services, I had acknowledged that Pandora was missing a visual component in order to map all the relationships and influences between the artists, while on the other hand, MusicPlasma was lacking a key feature of a music engine, sound."
