The application, which is currently in limited beta, allows anyone to easily create customized views over data that they upload into the system. There’s also the usual networking features providing an additional social dimension to data sharing and publishing. As I understand it Zepheira have plans for expanding the range of features in all sorts of ways, including new visualisations, the ability to merge and remix data from several sources, and naturally enough a commercial version that can be deployed within the enterprise. The core of Freemix is Simile Exhibit<http://www.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/> and a drag and drop interface for building up an Exhibit presentation over data that the user has uploaded. Data can be presented in several different ways, including simple tabular spreadsheets and in the Exhibit JSON format. Exhibit provides a number of different existing views suitable for presenting data, including lists, tables, maps, timelines, etc. As a web developer its straight-forward to build up your own Exhibits; Freemix takes this to the next level, making it trivial to build a presentation in just a few clicks, without the need to learn any markup: you just have to understand your own data.

They also seem to use Exhbit in the company website: http://zepheira.com/team/ Niels http://nielsmayer.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "SIMILE Widgets" group.
