The Mood-Meter of the Web the howislifetoday.com Social Startup Project Has Just Been Released

The brand-new howislifetoday.com collects news, blog, and twitter-posts depending on how they’ve influenced people’s mood today. The morale of the web community is measured and recorded by the visitors’ ratings on articles generating fine-grained statistics on the visitors’ frame of mind.

Budapest, Hungary, August 01, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Users are encouraged to post their own reasoning for their answer to the major question ”How is life today?” They can comment the uploaded news, blogs, etc., scores, and agree with them if they share the author’s or uploader’s opinion. The website provides a real-time index of the current state of mind, acting as the webcommunity’s global thermometer of a good or bad mood. Agreeing or disagreeing with opinions about these matters defines whether or not a day rocks.

The howislifetoday.com project aims to provide a creative site where, unlike other newsportals, articles are ordered based on the effect they have on our everyday life. ”We also created an embeddable meter for those who want to stay up-to-date on the current balance between good and bad news. Bloggers can activate the miniapp on their blogs in seconds, with a few easy clicks,” added G. Pesti, the lead programmer of the project.

The website supports other languages too. Not only does it have native translation built in, but articles written in other languages are shown only for those who would understand them.

”An exciting feature of the site is the detailed graphs we create from the vast amount of statistical data gathered. This lets someone check what the web community’s morale was like a few hours, weeks, or even months before. Collecting enough statistical data even allows us to provide forecasts about the climate of the web a few days ahead. Although the forecast is still just an ironic attempt – who knows? Maybe, we’ll find good recommendations on what we can expect, or how we should feel ourselves, tomorrow,” said M. Kristof, the project manager.
