Looks like today is a Wikipedia-vis day as Infosthetics talks about “eyePlorer“, another interactive visualization tool for Wikipedia.

Keywords related to a user-chosen topic are placed in a circle, which once selected, reveals the nature of the relationship. The granularity of these keywords can be tweaked by a zoom slider at the bottom, and double-clicking a keyword reveals the relationships with its neighbors by connecting lines.

The colors within the circle denote different categories such as people, countries or organizations. Categories can be removed by dragging them outside of the screen, or further refined by clicking on an empty zone within them.
