Marumushi understands how reading the news can be a strenuous affair. There are sections to browse through, categories to find, Paris Hilton entertainment articles to avoid. So to make it just that little bit easier, Marumushi has come up with Newsmap, an application that works like a tree map – storing all information gathered by the Google news aggregator onto one single page. It’s a great tool to divide information up in a visually stimulating way that is easy and less time consuming. And when presented together, it’s easier to see the patterns in news reporting across different cultures. The best part is it doesn’t claim to be unbiased – instead it highlights the irony of how biased our news can be.
