I came across this interactive feature today and thought it was really cool. With the healthcare vote coming up soon, NYTimes decided to do a feature showing how representatives intended to vote. The feature shows which representative is a yes, no, or an undecided. It also is being updated frequently with people's decisions coming in at any time.
It is also cool because it also lets you know whether each representative is up for relection, won a district by McCain or the President, or whether that person is a freshman or is a fiscally conservative blue dog. I thought it was really unique, and gives me some ideas for my own project.
Interactive and user-friendly is the way to go!!!
