“Knowledge is power!”, or so the saying goes. Knowledge shared is knowledge doubled!
Sharing (of information) is an integral aspect of Datawunder. Upload an Excel spreadsheet, create a view from it and share it with others. Alternatively, you can filter the contents of your view, save the selection as a snapshot and share that snapshot too. Invite debate and commentary by creating a slideshow from multiple snapshots. You can share that too, of course.
There are two ways in which views from Datawunder can be shared:
- Direct View Sharing
Using this method, a user can completely integrate a Datawunder view into another web page. The entire view, with complete functionality i.e. filtering, searching, row selection etc. can be accessed from that page itself.
This method would be the preferred method used by media channels, such as journalists, bloggers etc. when dealing with their self-created views.
The procedure is quite simple. Buttons linking to most popular social networking services will be present right from the view page itself. As such, the user can share the view with just a click.
The page will also contain a link back to the original view page.
- Link to View/Snapshot
This method mostly deals with the commenting system. Users can link to their views or snapshots (in the comments section) via their walls/feeds/timelines on major social networking sites.
This can also be done via buttons incorporated into the comments thread.
The future of the internet is all about sharing, and Datawunder is no different in this.
