Visualize Twitter in 3D

I’m a very big fan of Twitter (@NuclearStr1der), and I’m constantly amazed at the creative uses of the Twitter API, especially Twittervision.

If you’re looking for a cool way to visualize the public timeline, look no farther than Twittervision. Twittervision has been around for quite a while already, displaying millions of tweets on a map of the world in real time. This 2D version is brilliant in itself… but now Twittervision 3D has been introduced. In 3D mode, Twittervision showcases all the public tweets on a 3D (and interactive) globe.

You’re able to rotate, zoom and change the angle at which Earth is viewed. A Day/Night cycle is thrown in for good measure as well. Screenshot below:
