Today we released a new version of our graphical knowledge engine eyePlorer.com. This new release, codename “flyspot”, features a radar view whose size we increased significantly so that users with rather small displays can make best possible use of the application.

The new release of eyePlorer.com, codename "flyspot"

We also improved the layout algorithm, the font size handling and the category colours to bring even more visual appeal to eyePloring knowledge. Another handy feature is available in the upper right hand corner of the radar view: using the inner search you can filter the set of concept names to only those that match a certain pattern (such as “museum” on the “Berlin” eyeMap). Several interface controls which used to be available directly can now be found behind the “View” menu: the number of concepts (from 20 to 500), language (English or German), the “show facts after mouseclick” checkbox with which you can disable the mouseover popup windows and a function to disable the tips and hints which are displayed below the radar view.

We also improved the notepad: a new “Settings” tab enables users to change the font-size as well as the password. Furthermore, you can finally add your individual notes in addition to the facts, concepts and categories that you collect on the notepad. The knowledge base which you can access using eyePlorer.com was also expanded significantly.

We hope you like the new version! Feel free to tell us what you think of the new release in the comments.
