[oursignal.com] looks at currently popular items on the top social news sites (i.e. , , , ) and mashes it all together in an interactive treemap, very similar to the well-known Google NewsMap. The idea is to allow users to get a rapid overview of what the latest breaking headlines are at the frontline of the intermatubes.
