This<br \/>\nvisualization allows you to see how users on average navigate through<br \/>\na website and then to do some pivoting on various user attributes and<br \/>\nlook at trends over time. The pivoting could, for example, show how<br \/>\npeople from US vs non-US click-behavior varies. The trending could<br \/>\ndemonstrate that users are exiting at a higher rate after a certain<br \/>\npoint in time. The work uses massive clickstream data sets from<br \/>\nwebsites. The visualization I imagine is a directed graph that shows<br \/>\nclick-through rates and exit rates from the site. Here is something<br \/>\nsimilar that IBM&#8217;s Many Eyes built using processing:<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/manyeyes.alphaworks.ibm.com\/manyeyes\/visualizations\/word-tree-<br \/>\nmonica-goodling<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve built the components that get the data into a format that can be<br \/>\nused by some visualization software. I&#8217;m currently trying to build a<br \/>\nprototype in Processing but it would be great to get someone involved<br \/>\nwho has other ideas to make the interaction compelling and easily<br \/>\ndigestible to a user of this tool. I already have something working<br \/>\nusing python scripts and GraphViz but it is not interactive.<\/p>\n<p>Pay is flexible depending on experience and much of the work can be<br \/>\ndone remotely and independently.
