Defining Time: 10X10

It's funny that I don't bump into more creative projects like this but for some reason I just love them. My friend Mark Federman mentions this site, called 10X10 on his blog. The concept is very cool. In their words:

“10x10™ ('ten by ten') is an interactive exploration of the words and pictures that define the time. The result is an often moving, sometimes shocking, occasionally frivolous, but always fitting snapshot of our world. Every hour, 10x10 collects the 100 words and pictures that matter most on a global scale, and presents them as a single image, taken to encapsulate that moment in time.”

What you get is a simple interactive experience that literally grabs bits of history and creates a visual mosaic that becomes an representitive collection of that moment in time.
