It's Monday and already we've found a new interactive visualisation to get all gar-garh over.

The New Political Interfaces visualise the influence of new means of communication in politics. This visualisation has been inspired by the influence of social networking systems in the Obama campaign; the creative team looked into content generated by official sources and political parties, in contrast to those generated by individuals in online systems.

For both interactive visualisations, what are or aren't they talking about? Total amount of retweets over time showcase what subjects political pundits are tweeting about.

It is interesting to look into what each political pundit tweets about and even more interesting to see what they DON'T tweet about. Take a look for yourself.
