Fex: ForumExplorer by Andrew McNutt

The main visual interface for threaded conversations on the internet (forums) is still mostly text. In this work we give a full reimagining of the forum reading experience through the use of graph and tree visualizations. We enact this vision as a Chrome Extension and tablet-friendly PWA, FeX: ForumExplorer, that reconstructs HackerNews (chosen for its API and emphatically not for its often objectionable content) in a way that enhances users ability to overview-at-a-glance.
