TED posted this video featuring Jonathan Harris, co-creator of We Feel Fine. Harris first talks about the art of storytelling, and how story telling has changed in the past few years due to Blogging online. Then he talks about the website We Feel Fine. This fascinating website scans blogs for the term “I feel” or “I am feeling” and records the entire sentence. The talk explores how people all over the world have similar feeling and life changing experiences, such as a first kiss, first child, getting married, first pet, or first car.
Harris definitely saves the best for last when he speaks about the new website, called ”Universe.” This website takes the information from We Feel Fine and creates constellations. This video and these websites are mind blowing. After watching this video, I looked for the Interactive Site, from We Feel Fine, and ”Universe.” On the interactive website, from We Feel Fine, you can search by feelings, gender, age, weather location and date. I suggest you check it out.
