Network Traffic

A browser extension that finds the internet for you on a map.

Classes
Appropriating Interaction Technologies


As you browse the internet, you make requests to far away servers and data centers. My browser extension makes you connect physically with those locations on a map before you gain access to the website. It helps make you aware of the structure of the internet, and how far and fast data travels before it loads on your computer.

Audience
Anyone who uses the internet

User Scenario
A user comes up to a computer to browse the internet, and is taken on a geographic tour of the websites they go to.

Implementation
It's a browser extension, so just a computer with an internet connection.
