I first met Kevin Malloy eons ago in the USENET newsgroup rec.motorcycles. A few years later Kathleen and I moved to Colorado, and a few years after that Kevin and I ended up working at the same company in the same building. Kevin is one of my heros: he’s three days older than I am, and at a time when most people would have been looking forward to retirement, he quit a lucrative high-tech career and entered the Denver Police Academy. Today he’s a street cop who trains other cops. Arvada Colorado 2007.

This is a treemap of the Usenet newsgroup discussion community space generated by the Netscan system at Microsoft Research. This map represents a year of message reception by all Usenet newsgroups that were collected by the Netscan service. The area of each box is proportional to the number of messages that newsgroup received. Bigger newsgroups create bigger boxes. Color maps to change from the prior year, green indicating growth and red for decline over the prior time period. The original sized image shows significant detail. The treemap tool is available for free download from the research.microsoft.com web site. It comes with an Excel plug-in that allows users to generate their own treemaps with any data they can get into a spreadsheet (that contains a properly formatted hierarchical data structure). Your mileage may vary. Netscan can be found at netscan.research.microsoft.com.
